Place two ties underneath the top fold before hemming it down. The key to getting them evenly spaced is to first know we are doing 6 sets of ties. Start by placing one set of ties flush with one end, and another set of ties flush at the other end.
Space the remaining four inner ties evenly. I did this by measuring from the inner edge of the tie all the way to the inner edge of the other tie and divided by 5. Since my fabric was 52 inches wide, I placed my ties about 10 inches apart. You don’t have to be super exact as long as they are pretty evenly spaced.
Tuck the raw edge of the ties under the fold and pin.
Sew a hem all the way around the curtain panels. I like to sew it as close as possible to the bottom fold. I like to put my piece upside down so the bobbin thread is on top, which is not technically right, but this ensures I don’t miss the hem at all and then I make sure to get all 12 ties.
Once you have sewn a hem all the way around the curtain panel and sewed in the ties, you will want to pull the ties towards the top and put a top stitch on each tie.
Another option would be to serge all of the raw edges of the ties and then just sew them already facing up in place on the top hem. Then, you could bypass tucking them in, sewing, and then flipping them over and sewing.
Once you’ve sewn all the way around, hang and enjoy your curtains.
All finished!
