I combined several books for both ideas and how to guides. Window Top Treatments is an excellent resource for a nice variety of ideas, many of which are classic window treatments, but the how to instructions are definitely worth the purchase.

The designs are great. There are good, clear pictures throughout the book, How-to directions are easy to understand. The only flaw is there are no pictures of the final product at the end of the how-to tutorials. After following the directions and pictures for the how-to sections, there are no pictures of the final product. It would be more helpful to see a picture of the final product to get a better idea of what the window treatment should look like when completed.

As a beginner sewer, I found the book to be pretty comprehensive with its instructions. There are a few treatments which are beyond my abilities at this point. My only complaints about the book would be that some of the sewing terms were not explained in the glossary and there were no photos of the finished products.

This is a delightful book. It is well written and illustrated. The techniques demonstrated will assist the novice in producing professional looking window treatments;

Very nice book with easy to follow instructions. Great photos. I haven't made anything yet, but I have looked through the book. I can't wait to get started.

This is a great reference book for making curtains/swags. Instructions are very clear and easy to follow. Glad I purchased it.

I was a bit apprehensive when I purchased this book. I was looking for window treatment ideas. But this book helped me create my very own swags, valances - you name it. With very easy step-by-step information, in no time you will have beautiful curtains all over the house.
