Mary, I liked the show curtain that you made! It is much like what I want to do for my bath, but I am putting a valance as well. My question to you is: If you wanted to have the curtain split and drawn back to each side (rather than to one side, as you did) how much fabric would you allow for each? Would you still use 3x the width of the area and split it for each panel, or add more fabric? Thanks.

Hi Gayle. I would still use the 3x fullness. This amount is for thinner fabrics. Don't forget to add on for your side hems too.
