Curtain panels 1, 2 - Yellows, Reds

It took until Thursday night to finish the first panel (yellows). The second (reds) was started and finished today. I'm exhausted from repeatedly standing to iron, bending to measure and cut, sitting and leaning forward to sew, and...

ironing, measuring, cutting, pinning, sewing, unpinning, ironing strips together
measuring, marking, folding, ironing, pinning, sewing, unpinning, ironing the left seam
ditto for right seam
ironing, measuring, marking, folding and pinning the finished edge, folding, pinning, ironing, sewing, unpinning the bottom seam for the curtain rod pocket
measuring, marking, folding, pinning, sewing, unpinning, ironing the top seam for the pocket
measuring, marking, folding, pinning, sewing, unpinning, ironing the bottom hem

Time to sit in with hubby in the living room, crocheting and "watching" TV. I'll probably start another curtain panel tomorrow...6 more to go.
