Sewing is self‑expression. Every stitch, every seam, and every carefully chosen fabric tells a story about who we are and how we see the world. At Beautiful Windows Elgin, we believe sewing is more than a skill — it is an art form, a language of creativity, and a way to bring beauty into everyday life. Whether you are a seasoned maker or just beginning your journey, sewing allows you to transform raw materials into something uniquely yours. Our mission is simple yet profound: to empower makers

Curtains – The “ins and outs”
Curtains – The “ins and outs” – How to Select the Height or Length of Curtains
There are only a few simple rules to follow for choosing curtain height or length
The length or height of the hung curtain should be to the floor or the windowsill.
Anything in between looks rather odd.
There is a trend today of puddling curtains, this is where they are made longer than the height required and “puddle” on the floor, this requires a skill in fabric selection, so that they sit well. It is used commonly in living rooms and bedrooms.
With puddled curtains on a hand drawn track, make sure that the width of the curtain is not excessive as they become heavy and difficult to draw back. They are also prone to picking up all the fluff from your floor, so a little bit more attention is required to keeping them looking smart.
