Making A Quilted Shower Curtain

Have you been surfing the net trying to find some information about making quilted designer shower curtains? Well you have come to the right place. I have put together this post to help someone like you.

Before engaging yourself in this project you need to be well equipped with some information and tips that may seem trivial but will prove useful along the way. So if you can just take a few minutes to read right to the end and you will be glad you did.

You may have tried hard to find what you are looking for in stores to no avail – hence the decision to do it yourself. For example some of the visuals you may have in mind include purple fabric shower curtains or ringless shower curtain {blended|accentuated|beautifully combined} with an assortment of beautiful colors but only to find that your local bathroom store doesn’t carry them. This is where DIY comes to play.

Here are some thought starters.

You can make it without putting any batting in it to make it lighter.

One of the most important prerequisites of a shower curtain is water proofing – so be careful with your stitching.

I suggest you make a quilt top and then use plastic for the lining. Saw the quilt top to the lining and have the rivets made.

Sewing the quilt to the lining can cause it to be porous, hence my recommendation to consider sewing the quilt at the top. Unless you have other methods to minimise the leakage.

You can then hide the seams by putting a backing on it especially if you decide to go with the quilted top.

You can also make buttonholes across the top of the hooks instead of sewing the quilt to the plastic liner. This is good especially when cleaning trying to clean the curtain i.e. you can simply wash the liner separately.
