Tutorial: Girl's Gathered Vintage Valance (Curtain) Top

[stitchlounge]

Our newest tutorial brings you something for the lovely little lady in your life - a Girl's Gathered Vintage Valance Top!

We love the fabric in vintage valance curtains and they can be found aplenty at your neighborhood thrift store—or in your grandma’s kitchen! Valances (as opposed to longer curtains) are already hemmed on top and bottom, and have a pre-sewn casing in place, making it a super easy, super fast project for a crafty mom on the go!

You can download the pdf of goodness here!

I love the top, thanks for the tute!  Now, if only I could get my machine to shirr again...

Ignore my last post...  Just read the tute and saw that what I thought was shirring was actually elastic!  Even better!

HELP!! I can't download any of the tutes on the link.  I really like the muumu top and want to see how to make it.  And, I have a supercool valance begging me to be a top!  Oh, someone, please help!
