OCR Text	CURTAINS IN THE BEDROOM Economy May Be Combined With Good Taste in the Manner Described De-scribed in This Article. In making curtains for the bedroom, windows you can economize in material ma-terial by selecting swiss or scrim the width of the window. Now measure off the length you desire the curtains and cut the material from corner to corner on the bias. In other words, cut from the lower left-hand corner to the upper right-hand corner. To this bias edge apply a ruffle either of the material or of coarse lace. Finish the joining seam neatly by stitching a strip of featherstitched braid or a narrow bias fold over the ruffle and seam edge. Now finish the broad straight edge at the top with a hem and narrow casing, through .which is run a tape the length of the width of the window. The curtains are then . shirred over the tape or small brass rods and attached at-tached to the windows. Drape them to each side of the window win-dow with ribbons or cotton cords, and you will have a pair of very good-looking good-looking curtains, made from the quantity quan-tity of material generally employed in making one curtain.
