Catherine Valance
Description: © 2005 Pate-Meadows Designs, Inc.
This unique valance is a casual take on a formal style and can be adapted to fit any size window by adding additional swag sections. Instructions are for a valance that is 38-42” finished width. The information needed to add to or reduce the width is included. The finished length of the valance is approximately 22 ½” at the swag, 17 ½” at the middle horn and 34” at the side jabots. The jabots are lined in a contrasting fabric. A facing made with decorative fabric is used along the bottom edge of the swag lining so that ivory/white lining does show to the front.
This valance works best when constructed out of a medium-weight decorative fabric.
Shown mounted on a decorative rod with rings.
