I was reading bert's post about curtains and was wondering if there is anyone out there with a template or dimensions (pdf) of the original fitted curtains.Or if anyone has got em out at the moment for a wash that they could post a piccie with measurements..
I am using blackout lined homemade's with magnets on the bottom at the mo but wanna make some that fit tidy

Re: curtain templates
Here's a link for 1987 Westy curtains. I used these directions when I made my black out curtains.

Re: curtain templates
These are the patterns that we used too
Good luck I recommend "mocking" one up first - I used an old duvet cover.
Merry Christmas,

Re: curtain templates
what is wrong with getting a tape out? surely it depends on the interior format.

I did get the tape out for the first set but seem to fail on the bit around the cab being longer at the bottom then the top,and lost a fair bit of skin to a singer sewin machine..(git) ...
