No sew curtains!

So here we are with another weekend approaching and so many projects!  More sod was delivered today and it looks like Saturday is bound to be a planting/mulching day!

But on the inside....I'm continuing the curtain making saga.  I decided to buy my fabric for the great room sliding doors.  This way I can customize the length and it's much more cost-effective!  I was ready to dust off my sewing machine and then I came across hem tape!  When I hung my dining room curtains from IKEA, I couldn't believe they weren't hemmed.  I thought...."hmmm, that's weird",  and hung them anyway.  Then...oila!  (sp?) (pronounced wa-la!) In the bottom of the bag was this white webby stuff folded up.  When looking back at the directions (after I'd hung them of course), it showed that you could IRON a hem!   Now, I know most of you are thinking, "Are you serious?  You'd never heard of this?"  But I promise, I hadn't!  It has changed my world.  Curtains, pillows, pants, the possibilities in this house are endless.  Look out!   Here are pics of the process.

First I ironed a crease...

Then I slipped in the hem tape...

Then ironed them shut and clipped on the hooks...

And...the finished product!

What projects are you working on this weekend?
