Step 1<= /h2>

With yo= ur curtains hung at the desired height from your curtain rods, determine wh= at your desired length is, and insert a few sewing pins along the edge to m= ark it. You could opt to have them graze the floor or hang above it.

Step 2

Measure the distance between the bottom of the curtain to the line = marked with pins. Subtract two inches from the measurement, and mark a stra= ight line across the fabric with pencil or chalk. This will be the fabric y= ou cut off.
