How to Make a Pull-Up Curtain

Measure the width of your window, and double it to get the amount of fabric you need for the length of the curtain. Cut the fabric so that it has a width of 25 inches.

Measure around the perimeter of the pull-up curtain to figure out the length of the binding.. Sew lengths of binding together to get one piece that is long enough.

Pin the binding around the edges of the curtain. Make sure your unfolded edges of the binding align on both the front and the back of the curtain, with the folded side covering the raw edge of the curtain. Sew the binding to the curtain by stitching along the binding's unfolded edge. Trim any excess threads.

Install the curtain knobs at the window. It is important to use knobs that stick out from the wall at least 3 inches. Screw two of the knobs in at the top corners of the window. Install the third knob in the center, 12 to 18 inches higher than the two at the corners.

Cut three 6-inch lengths of ribbon. Fold the ribbons into loops, and hand-sew one to the middle of the pull-up curtain and the other two one-quarter of the way in from either end. Use the ribbons to hang the pull-up curtain on the knobs.
