Default shower curtain, sun screens

Just rehung the shower curtain after an alteration. I always felt that there was just too much fabric to do the job. So, I overcast a line 5 1/2 " from the bottom and then pinked the edge. The edge could also be seared (as in flamed). It looks less bulky and makes me happy. Also, plan to gather them up with a plant velcro tie back to cut the bulk. Then, I bought 5 of those cheap roll-up windshield screen at the $ store for a buck a piece. I attached self-stick velcro hook pieces to the top edge aligned with the upholstery buttons on the header. They tuck right in and do a great job of blocking the sun. They'll fit flat under the mattresses. Plan to make some stick-on blockers for the sky lights, too. A feel good day. Northwoods -add a happy smilie, I can't get them to move.
