[quote=Anonymous]Curtain snob here (and I'm not really a snob, just someone who swoons over good window treatments). I think curtain width depends on the fabric you choose. I like very thick fabrics as they lay better. Dupioni silk is my absolute favorite but I will be trying velvet in my dining room soon. I think 2x width of your windows is a good measure. Just make sure they're lined and they should lay right. About how much fabric I buy depends on what I plan on making. I normally make a pillow to match the drapes also although I've gotten good at making the expensive fabric go further such as only doing it on one side of the pillow. [/quote]
