What's inside my back window
I made these dragonfly lace curtains for our Casita. Three sets, which are perfect for the windows of our 21's dinette.

Those are sooo you Mary! You described the curtains to me at the NOG, but seeing them, they're perfect.

I took the valences down and whip stitched them to the backs. The curtains were already gathered onto a casing that I had used for a rod to pass through in the Casita. So it wasn't a big project to retro fit to the Escape. Luckily they were the right size, although I guess RV windows are RV windows.

Thanks, D. I still don't know what kind of bride would want dragonflies on her wedding veil.

Thank you Mary - it looks beautiful. I'm intending to do some kind of curtain for our trailer too. Hadn't thought about a lace like that but might need to reconsider now!

For what it's worth, the valences aren't fancy: made of wood and fastened to the overhead cabinets with long wood screws. If you wanted to add them, you'd probably want to reinforce the cabinets where the wood screws come in; but the valences themselves aren't heavy.

Thanks, Jill. I always thought this dragonfly lace was funny (still do). Being white, they seem to accentuate the light of the window rather than darkening the room. Being lace, of course, they don't really obscure the view.
