    Thanks for the laugh. I'm glad I'm not the only one.

    i feel your pain! they look alot like the curtains i made for our bedroom in our new house :)
    luckily for me i had 2 sets of windows to cover so when i noticed one was 4" shorter than the other i then went back and made 2 more just like them...then paired them up to match. it has taken me YEARS but i finally started (doing the math) when i sew ... well some of the time anyway ;)

    WHAT!!! You mean it WASN'T supposed to be like that?
    Same thing happened to me one time. Until I had time to fix it, I just told anyone who commented on it that it was supposed to be like that, 'it's a new decorating trend I read about'. A couple of people actually believed me, tee hee hee.

    Had to really laugh at thids one, not the difference in length as much as you nailing them to the wall. Sounds like something I would have done. There is always a fix if you look for it. LOL

    I am so glad I am not the only one! Keep on laughing, it is the best medicine. as someone else said, easy to fix, but the moment you realize you have goofed is something, isn't it?
