Default New Curtains

Here are some photos of new curtains I made for our 2005 3125KB. I used indoor/outdoor fabric and ended up lining with black out lining since too much light was coming through. I recovered the valances with upholstery fabric. Also, I redid the bed curtains. The set for the double bed came out too short, so I added some of the window curtain fabric at the top. I thought it gave them a nice effect. Also, used scraps of fabric to recover sofa pillows.

Very nicely done, Lindaloo58! I like the warm earth tones of your curtains and it looks as though you have great skills.

Default Wanted: new curtains

Those look great.
My 2008 3023 is in need of new curtains. They got damp and are faded/stained. Not sure if they can be cleaned(?)

Does Trail Manor (or ???) sell replacements?
Anyone that's handy with a sewing machine interested?

Craig V -

It has been reported here on the forum that the curtains can be washed in your washing machine like any other cloth item. This may help stains, but I'm not sure about fading. The trick is to remount them while they are still damp. If you dry them in the dryer, they will shrink, making them nearly impossible to remount.

It has also been reported that TM sells curtains, but they seem incredibly expensive. You might telephone Sonja in the TM parts dept 605-239-4002 for help.

Wow! Very nicely done. Can I commission you to do mine? Do you leave them in place when you close the trailer just as before?

Thanks. I wish I had time to do more sewing, but lately, life is getting in the way. I do leave them up all the time. I actually made the new curtains a little less full, so they lie flatter against the windows when the TM is closed. Hopefully, they will stay cleaner with less rubbing on the side of the TM. We haven't taken it out since I finished the curtains due to health problems, but hoping we can this year.
