MAKE A CORD TIDY BAG

1. Make a cord tidy bag to stow the pulled cord from the tapes, from lining.

ATTACH HEADING TAPE

1. Cut a length of heading tape at least 10cm longer than the width of the curtain panel.
2. Use a complimentary thread colour to your face fabric.
3. Start attaching the tape at the outside edge of tthe curtain.
4. At the end of the tape pull the cords out from the tape loops and knot them together.
5. Tuck the excess tape under and place the heading tape approx 1cm from the edge of the curtain and 0.5cm down from the top .
6. Do not tuck the knot under the heading tape
7. Machine along the top of the tape until approx 15cm from the end.
8. Pull the cords out of this end so they come out of the tape in line with the edge of the curtain.
9. Tie the cords together.
10. Trim the heading tape so there is aproximately a 5cm overlap at the end of the curtain.
11. Tuck the excess tape (and knotted cords) under so the heading tape will sit approx 1cm from the edge of the curtain.
12. Finish machining along the top.
13. Check to remove all pins from the heading (some may be under the tape).
14. Machine along the end of the tape
15. Start at the other end again
16. Machine along the end of the tape you started at (leave the knot out).
17. Insert the cord tidy bag flap under the tape.
18. Position the bag a few cm in from the side of the curtain.
19. Then machine along the bottom of the tape in the same direction you machined along the top.
