I am going to make some curtains too, but I was going to try making a Canadian 'window quilt' for the bathroom. It just adds a layer of wadding and a waterproof layer between the curtain material and liner. Then you have velcro to fix it to the wall, so there are no gaps for air to seep through. There are instructions online, but we did talk about having a transition workshop for making them, which would be more fun!

Having double glazed windows lulled me into thinking they were more insulated, as you don't really feel a draught from them. I need to get sewing!Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00371314706811756465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6672883659746456880.post-62243540138663418092014-01-13T19:11:18.653-08:002014-01-13T19:11:18.653-08:00Hi Judy,

You will certainly make a big difference to my housekeeping now. I do plan have venetian blinds behind double glazed windows in a bathroom.. I suspect I will now make and put curtains over the windows as well.<br /><br />SuellaSuellanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6672883659746456880.post-72062002552260266142014-01-13T02:02:48.757-08:002014-01-13T02:02:48.757-08:00What a good idea to look at your roof on a frosty ...What a good idea to look at your roof on a frosty morning. Brilliant. Will try to remember in winter. We put double blinds and curtains on most of our windows last year, which has markedly reduced draughts, even from some of our old leaky windows. It's fascinating to see where the heat leaks out of the house. The windows are clearly the weakest link.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17803297366197086152noreply@blogger.com
