From the desk of Jenny T.™
Dear Sewer (Beginner or Pro):
Hi I'm Jenny T.™. You may not know me but if you're anything like me you love the look of roman shades... roman shades provide privacy... they have an amazing element of style, whether it's contemporary or traditional... and roman shades can even help insulate your windows. You want roman shades on your window.
And if you're like everyone else... you've discovered that having roman shades custom made will cost you literally thousands... and I don't know about you, but I simply don't have that kind of money to decorate my house!
Obviously, making your own roman shades is the answer to your problems... but if you're like most people you're on the fence right now... trying to figure out whether it makes sense for you to struggle to figure out and learn how to make roman shades... or to go ahead and just spend the money and have roman shades custom made for you... even if you can't afford it.
I can tell you from personal experience that roman shades are way easier to make than you may think.
It is absolutely not worth your time and hard earned money to pay someone literally thousands of dollars to have your roman shades made for you... when you could easily do it yourself.
But if you're like everyone else, you hesitate on making your own roman shades because you think they're too hard to make.
If you're anything like me... you want your home to look professionally decorated without having to take out a second mortgage.
If you agree... then keep reading... because this information is critical to you.

How I Saved $1827
Making My Own Roman Shades
My name is Jennifer Thoden a.k.a. Jenny T. and I wasn't always a sewer. In fact, even though my mother sewed clothing and all kinds of things as I grew up... my interest in sewing really wasn't there.
After I got married... and had my first home... I wanted to decorate my home. But like most people starting out in life, I did not have a lot of money. I had a new job and a new baby... there was not a lot of money to spend on having custom window treatments made.
I loved the look of roman shades because they offered privacy. I love the idea of being able to select my own fabric and hang it on the window. And I liked the idea of how it looks when you raise it and it pleats.
As a gift for Christmas, my mother-in-law... who always gives great great gifts at Christmas time... decided that she was going to have my roman shades made for me. Yes, very generous!
So, she took me to a local decorator fabric store and had me pick out the fabric of my choice. We then gave the nice lady at the counter the measurements for 2 windows... I only had 2 windows in my living room... and anxiously awaited the quote to make my roman shades.
I was so excited! I imagined walking into my townhouse everyday and marveling at how amazing my living room looked. My friends would stop by and swoon at the beauty of my home. They would stand there staring at my custom roman shades... wishing they had them on their windows. My roman shades would be the talk of the town.
Well, my bubble was burst by one simple number... I almost fell over when she told us how much it would cost for 2 standard sized roman shades. $1827!!
My mother-in-law is generous... but not that generous. So, the next words out of her mouth were... we can make these ourselves. I looked at her bewildered... but nodded my head. I thought... there is no way I'm going to be able to make custom roman shades! I don't even know how to sew!
But we perservered! We found a local class that taught sewing roman shades... and we signed up! Now, you may think that this is the end of my story. That I learned how to make roman shades and that everyone lived happily ever after. But that is not the case at all!
My mother-in-law and I attended the class with my VERY expensive fabric. We had the measurements in hand. We followed the instructor as she lead us through the steps. Many times I was lost... mainly because I didn't sew! But I did it! And I was so excited! I had one completed roman shade to take home and install on my window. The anticipation was killing me! I had to see how this amazing custom roman shade... that I made... was going to look!
We get home... I installed it onto my window... and.... it was too narrow. By about 3 inches! At first, I thought that maybe we made a mistake in our measurements. But we didn't. The instructor's instructions were wrong.
So, my mother-in-law and I struggled to figure out how to fix this very expensive mess. We dug through sewing books to find instructions on making roman shades. We found very little to none. And the ones we did find were vague and even more confusing.
And so... "How To Make Roman Shades" was born!
How To Make Roman Shades is written from a beginner's perspective. It is specifically designed to help YOU successfully make professional quality roman shades... even if you have no sewing experience.
Listen, I've been there. I know what it's like to sit there and stare at your fabric... and just not be able to make that first cut.... in fear of making a critical mistake.
So, let me give you an idea of how you would use How To Make Roman Shades.
- First, you'll have your choice of roman shade style to make. You'll get to choose from a flat roman shade, hobbled roman shade, slatted roman shade, london roman shade, butterfly shade or relaxed roman shade. All of these styles are available to you... all the time!
- When you first open your e-book, you'll see a detailed supply list with photos, so that you don't have to guess at what that item might look like when you go the store
- Then you'll read the step by step illustrated instructions on how to measure your window for an inside or outside mount... so that your roman shade comes out to the size you need and expect. These instructions are for ANY size roman shade. If you want to make a roman shade that is 120" wide... you can! And I show you how!
- With your measurements in hand... you'll simply enter them into a fun and easy online calculator, that will tell you your fabric's cut dimensions and the number of yards you need of fabric and lining. It just doesn't get any easier than this! The e-book also has a plug-in-the number formula that you can use... with examples to help you. You can no longer use the excuse that you're just not good at math!
- You'll even get to choose the style heading you want for your roman shade. Rod pocket, tab-top or standard board mount.
- Next, you'll cut your fabric and lining to the cut measurements. If you need guidance on this... you'll have access to a complete illustrated guide to cutting your fabric.
- Then, you'll follow the easy illustrated instructions to sew the bottom, side and top hems.
- You'll follow along as you measure and mark for your shade rings. Again... you may worry that there's math involved. Which there is... BUT you'll have access to another fun online calculator that will do all the math for you. Just plug in some numbers, get the measurements you need and you're on your way to completing your roman shade.
- Once you have sewn your roman shade, you will quickly and remarkably easily install your roman shade
It really is that simple!
But maybe you're thinking... yeah, that sounds great... but what I really want is for you to come to my house and just show me how it's done!
Ok... I can't come to your house... BUT I have the next best thing. Step by step video tutorials that go along with the e-books.
What's so great about these videos? Well, let me tell you...

"I’ve avoided making Romans for years..."
"Jennifer Thoden’s directions and videos were incredibly helpful to this Roman shade neophyte. I’ve avoided making Romans for years because of the hardware. Having watched the videos and having read her directions closely, I was amazed at how easy this project was! As Jen suggested, I used the orbs to tweak the cord tension; however, I did the finally tweaking at the cord pull as I found that easier. Another success for Jennifer Thoden!" Dottie Foote |

PS. Still not convinced. Then read what customers just like you have said about How To Make Roman Shades...
Jennifer, Michael Holland I found this book while searching for a pattern. A friend ask me if I knew how to make roman shades, and my reply was, "No, but surely we can figure it out." I told her I would look and find a pattern and that I would try it out for a window in my house before we did her formal living room. I found this book and bought it....within seconds, we have all the instructions we could need in clear consise writing. After reading the book and getting all the wonderful e-mails from Jennifer, I was ready to tackle this project. I found it so easy to follow and refer back to with questions! A must have for someone who likes to decorate and make projects! Jennifer is great about sending e-mails with helpful hints and tips! Love the book! <A Review Out On Amazon.com> Dear Jennifer, You and your books are fabulous! I was so skeptical about the roman shade book. After all, everyone says they are easy and there are a zillion "free" instructions out there. Funny how none of them made me grab a measuring tape and then run to the hardware store! The difference is your book gave me confidence. Now I am envisioning new windows all over the house! Elizabeth Harrington Dear Jennifer, I'm going to sit down get started on making my first roman shade! I finally think I have directions that are easy to understand, and am looking forward to reading it and following the text and diagrams to hanging up my first shade. I will let you know how is goes and how it turned out. Thanks for putting complete directions with diagrams together that anyone can follow. Hope to finish by Sunday- thanks for asking. Beth Cernuska I ordered this book, made 2 shades the next day, and since then have purchased my materials to make 9 more shades for my patio room. Nothing could be clearer and more precise than this book. I've never attempted something like this before and my results were amazing, professional looking results! I never thought I could handle making something like this, but you made it extremely simple. Thank you so much, your book was wonderful. Kay Hurley “THANK YOU’ for all your help and advice that you gave me in helping me to put together my first roman shade for my client. I am so glad that I hooked up with your website. All the helps (video and the written instructions) were so helpful. The shade turned out beautiful! Thank you for advising me to use the ribs. The sales person at the fabric store, who also has done draperies, told me not to bother with ribs. But after talking with you, I had an inner hunch that I should use them. The drapery looked so much more crisp and operated much better with the ribs. Overall, I give your website a five star rating!!! Thank you so much. I will certainly be back when I have my next order.
