I delivered the curtains to my son's home in Colorado.....they looked smashing and they both liked them a lot. So I decided to make two more pairs for our house. They are a little different. Instead of using 10/2 cotton I used Hemp. Really. I got an enormous cone for a very reasonable price. It is fun to weave with, much like linen I think. The stripe is some linen I have been hording for a long time. I think it looks great. There was very little shrinkage, none in the width and maybe an inch or two in the length. I want to get the second set done before we leave for New England in a couple of weeks. The rods are made by my son who is a blacksmith artist living in Colorado.
