Are you looking for some ideas on making quilted fabric shower curtains? Let’s just say you have found what you have been looking for. This post has been written with you in mind.

I will quickly go through a few ideas that you can incorporate and some much needed information that you need to know before you start on this project. So if you can just take a few minutes to read right to the end and you will be glad you did.

You may have tried hard to find what you are looking for in stores to no avail – hence the decision to do it yourself. For example some of the visuals you may have in mind include brown and purple shower curtain or hookless shower curtains {blended|accentuated|beautifully combined} with a variety of certain colours but it’s not easy getting what you want because your local bathroom store doesn’t have them. So what do you do? I say make them yourself.

Here are some thought starters.

If you are looking for a lighter one try to avoid adding any kind of batting.

One of the most important prerequisites of a shower curtain is water proofing – so be careful with your stitching.

I suggest you make a quilt top and then use plastic for the lining. You can just saw the quilts at the top and then find some nice rivets to use.

Sewing the quilt to the lining can cause it to be porous, hence my recommendation to consider sewing the quilt at the top. Unless you don’t have much of a problem with the leakage.

If you choose to go with the quilted top idea you would need to use a backing to hide the seams.

Instead of sewing the quilt to the plastic liner you can make the buttonholes across the top of the hooks. This is good especially when cleaning trying to clean the curtain i.e. you can simply wash the liner separately.
