I've been making curtains and Roman blinds for more than 30 years, and set up Curtains Made For You here in the Cotswolds in 2008. I am proud to offer a very high quality of service and a professional standard of workmanship. As a result, I have some very happy customers! Made-to-measure, hand-finished curtains and blinds, alterations and accessories in Gloucestershire - with the personal touch!
10% of my business profit goes to a project which provides tailoring and small business training to young street girls in Harare, Zimbabwe find out more. I provide personal, hand-finished and made-to-measure curtains and blinds for customers who already have their curtain fabric (we supply linings).

My aim is to provide you with beautiful custom made curtains to a consistently high quality. I achieve this by doing much of the work by hand. This decision affects the look and style of the completed curtains, but our guide to Curtain Headings should help to de-mystify the topic.
It's difficult to be too prescriptive, but the standard curtain heading tends to be pencil pleat, pinch pleat headings are often associated with more traditional decor and headings such as eyelet and tab top provide a modern and comtemporary feel to interior decor.If you make your own curtains but don't have an eyelet press, I am happy to add the rings for you.

If your curtain fabric is in good condition then why not re-use it - especially if you are moving house, or giving a particular room a make-over. With our help, your old curtains can be made to look as good as new! We provide this service anywhere in the UK and, even allowing for courier costs (which we are happy to advise on), you are likely to find that getting curtains altered represents a really cost-effective option.
It's surprising what a difference those little touches can make to the final look of a room. So having got your made to measure curtains in place, there are a number of accessories that we can make to go with them. Below are just some of examples. Tie-backs are a great way to hold curtains clear of the window to enable as much light in the room as possible.
Having decided on made to measure curtains, we will need to know what type of curtain heading you would like, and there are many to choose from. Double pinch pleat curtains hang in columns and will emphasise the height of your room. They will require a greater width of curtain fabric than the standard pencil pleat heading.
Adding a lining to made to measure curtains helps to protect the main fabric, allows curtains to hang well and of course is effective in filtering light. There are a number of options for lined curtains depending on exactly what you want to achieve, the room in which the curtains hang and to some extent the weight of the curtain fabric.

Pat has been the most amazing local discovery. Both the curtains and roman blind she made for me have been finished to a very high, professional standard, with an artistic eye for the matching and placement of the pattern. I would not hesitate in recommending her to friends and family and, indeed, am wondering what project I can find for her to assist with next.
