I finally got around to making some new curtains for the kitchen. Because the windows are so gigantic, they are very challenging. The only place to buy anything long enough is Ikea which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Of course, it would be a better thing if there was one nearby. I do not consider Atlanta or Charlotte nearby.
I happen to have a collection of Ikea lace curtains--one because I love lace, and two because they are so cheap, and three because they are actually too long for my windows! I also buy tablecloths on clearance after Christmas, because they, too, are long enough and wide enough to be used as curtains--and they are obviously, washable.
