The Sophia Valance

A recent project that I completed was called the Sophia Valance. This soft valance consisted of a center section, two horns, and two side sections. The center section was altered to make it work for this width of a window. All pieces were sewn together to create one valance before attaching to a mount board.

At the lower edge of the valance I sewed a contrast burgundy piping which was the accent color in the bedspread. This valance was a very simple tailored look. The fabric on the face was Kasmir Fabrics pattern Boxwood, Stone. The lining was Mitchell Fabrics pattern Camelot, Endive.

Underneath the valance I mounted Hunter Douglas honeycomb cellular shades with the cordless feature.
These shades could also lower from the top as well as raise from the bottom. They are very energy efficient especially for this window having a west exposure with very little shade. The perfect shade for a bedroom !
