I ordered some yellow gingham from fabric.com and set to work. I hemmed the bottom and top and then made a wider pocket at the top to thread over the existing rail. Luckily I liked the raw selvedge edges at the sides so didn't bother hemming them.
As I said its a cheats blind - speed was of the essence & I couldn't be bothered to do a proper roman blind; its a hang by ribbons blind.
I stole some red ribbon for mini Maker no.1's craft kit and added 2 pairs of loops roughly the same spacing up the side of the rectangle of fabric.
I love the red & yellow don't you?
This is the "blind" hanging.
I attached two cheapey plastic hooks to the side of the top rail and to draw it hook over your ribbon loops.
