Curtain Stitching: How Custom Made Curtains Are Designed and Stitched for the Perfect Fit
Beautiful fabric can still end up pooling oddly on the floor, hanging too thin, or sitting wrong on the track, because great curtains aren’t just about the fabric, they’re about the stitching behind them. This guide walks through the entire curtain stitching process, from measurements and fullness ratios to heading styles like eyelet, pinch pleat, and S-fold, and how different fabrics (sheer, velvet, blackout-lined) demand completely different handling. Whether you’re deciding between custom and ready-made, or trying to figure out which heading suits your room, this guide breaks down exactly what separates an average curtain from one that hangs, moves, and lasts the way it should.
