Watson-Guptill Publications claimed Luscious photos ripe with shimmering silks, crisp linens, colorful cottons, and rich wools showcase a delicious array of drapes, valances, shades, and tiebacks. With an eye for drama and a fearless use of color, interior designer Heather Luke serves up lots of floor-to-ceiling treatments of chintzes, toiles, sheers, checks, plaids, and stripes, sometimes several at once. Headings are pleated, gathered, tabbed, ruched, buttonholed, bunched, reefed, grommeted, and gobleted; edges are bound, bordered, fringed, piped, and rolled. Made Easy is rather a misnomer, however, since Luke´s depth of detail in the directions does not match the breadth of her imagination in the design. Step-by-step instructions outline the basics of making each style, but none save the expert sewer will find these brief explanations fully adequate. Yet the book´s very opulence is part of its success; the other part is Luke´s expertise at analyzing design elements, fabric choices, and color and pattern considerations, and at adapting a dizzying array of styles to almost any type of window. Experienced curtain makers can probably manage with the how-tos; everyone else can feast their eyes on these lovely creations, gather ideas, then hire an expert to help realize their window dreams. --Amy Handy
