RE: [VAL] A call for curtain slider selection help



Glyn:

The hooks you describe are T-hooks and G-hooks.  The T-hooks fit into the
1/4 inch slots you describe, top and bottom, and have the lattice part that
is sewn to the drapes.  The G-hooks roll over the I-beam track and are also
sewn top and bottom.

 or Departments > Interior > Furnishings > Drapery & Curtains.

A better and probably cheaper source would be your local fabric store chain
that carries drapery fabric & supplies.  Ask for the T- and G-hooks.  

If you don't want to do it yourself, another option is James P. Ambruso,
Inc. in FL who advertises in the Blue Beret.  800-813-7686  I've heard
others speak highly of his work, he specializes in Airstream drapes.

    4.  Here's the only different one.  A 1/4" wide slot in the track at the
bottom of the galley window adjacent to the burners that faces toward the
center of the living space or horizontally as opposed to all others that
face vertically.


This one puzzles me...I have an ugly roller shade on the kitchen window!
