Instructions
1. Turn over two handkerchiefs. Place them next to each other so they overlap slightly. Pin and sew the overlapped handkerchiefs together.
2. Put another handkerchief next to one of the sewn handkerchiefs, overlapping it slightly. Pin and sew the handkerchiefs together.
3. Continue doing this until all of the handkerchiefs are attached.
4. Turn over the valance.
5. Pin the top edge of the blanket binding about 1/2 inch beneath the top edge of the valance. Pin the bottom edge of the blanket binding to the valance so there’s enough room between the binding and the handkerchiefs to insert a tension rod.
6. Sew the top and bottom of the binding to the handkerchiefs.
7. Slide the completed valance onto a tension rod, gathering the handkerchiefs slightly, and hang it near the top of a window.
