These will be perfect! I found a bold red striped canvas fabric from ikea for a roman shade and was trying to find a large print star curtain panels. (Ikea also sells heavy navy cotton panels.) I'm snowed in and am glad to have a project I'm excited about.

(4 total). Looked at walmart/target and did not find curtains. Went to Savers (THRIFT STORE) and scored 4 panels for only 12 dollars. All matching blue. I am having 4 half stars on each side and 3 stars down the center. I traced out 7 stars per panel and just cut the half stars in half before I started. One thing I am doing different is before I cut the stars out I Ironed on The no-sew adhesive 2 sided on there. My hopes is that when I cut it, then I iron it on and it should not fray. Very tedious process but they are looking vintage and patriotic in which I like. Thanks for the great idea. Super intersting to DIY but really the 4 panels are only costing me about 24 bucks.

I do sew but im not going to here. I am going to try iron on fusible webbing. I use it when I make appliques for shirts and it should cut down the amount of fraying. I will post a picture!

I have only done this project with cotton. Maybe a little poly is ok but mostly cotton. 100% polyester would not work. I would keep looking until you are able to find chino, twill or 100% cotton.
