Great technique! Do you think it would be good for a Roman shade, too? I like a little hem on the back.

Sure. That's how I hem balloon shades and London shades. Thank you for viewing the tutorial!

Please what you used for the lining. I am trying to make a box pleat valance.

Any good quality cotton sateen lining works best. We really like napped Sateen!
