One Thing, One Week Challenge #7 completed

My challenge with Amy was to make 2 curtain "tops" for my sewing room windows.  I squeaked under the wire finishing them. 



This is the basic design for the curtains...I wanted to try my hand at pinwheels.  I learned that the wind could blow two ways with pinwheels, and I tried both.  Needless to say, the design lacks a great deal, but I am keeping them.  It looks fun, in a weird sort of way.

I will be finishing two more curtains and then will start "embellishing" them a bit..hopefully by next "Challenge" they will be hanging where they should be instead of on the floor, cramped by space.

I know they will make the bare windows look better than they do now... even if the wind blows two directions at once...
