@justpottering It makes me wonder about skillsets nowadays..
The lady from Plumbs makes a personal visit to a potential customer for the specific purpose of discussing curtains and showing samples, but the lady from Plumbs doesn't know the width of the fabric?????
Regarding the cost, I was with my sister last Saturday who is having a bespoke pair of curtains made for a SMALL window in her new bedroom (they've just extended their house so they have a new master bedroom).
The cost of the curtains (window size I'm guessing is less than a metre high and about 1.3 metres across), with the curtains just sitting at the bottom of the window, plus a simple metal track, is £440!!!!!
(The fabric she chose was £36 per metre).
