Hi! I thought I would share one of my projects for a client. This project was for a painted canvas valance, one of four that I did for this particular client. I was fortunate and contacted by a book publisher who asked to use this particular painted valance in their new sewing book. The book is titled “The Step by Step Sewing Course” published by Reader’s Digest. Here is a link from Amazon-book
I have also included the painted valance on my painting wall. I am frequently contacted for these valances and offer custom designs for the clients.
The first photo shown is the canvas valance stapled to my painting wall. I stretch the canvas and staple it into place, measure, then paint. I will then carefully take the canvas down and trim, hem, add pocket and add any trim. These are really a great alternative to traditional window valances!
This second photo is of the completed valance
This last photo is the of the photo used in the sewing book!
