Curtains diy

In an effort to move forward with decorating this house and create a welcoming feeling  I decided that lace curtains was what I had envisioned, especially for the small window by the stairs.

Unfortunately par usual, I couldn't find what I had envisioned. 
I checked all the usual suspects...  Target, various thrift stores, Etsy, and so forth.  
I picture a simple vintage style. 

I chose a creamy muslin and found some lace to match.  

I measured the windows and doubled the measurements to allow for any necessary gathering and fullness.  I purchased 4 yards and hope....to maybe get four windows out of the muslin.

Muslin is great because you can tear it on the grain, press it into place with a hot iron and stitch it together.   Easy peasy right?   We'll see.
