You guys are silly to pay $150-$200 for curtains. It takes my girlfriend MAYBE 3-4 hours to sew an entire set. And costs as cheap as $20 in fabric (depending on what kind of fabric you use... some fabric is super expensive). Shes made two sets now... one for her 71 transporter and one for my 80 Westy. Mine were made from Batiked cotton thats been patchworked. Hers are cordaroy on one side and a butterfly patterned cotton on the other. Neither set cost more than $30 in material to make.For those of you who just cant sew(or dont know anyone that could do it for you) let me know if any of you want custom curtains made by her. Im sure she could make them cheaper than any company for you, and you could pick some cool fabric instead of just solid blue or brown. Peace, Ethan |
