Something you'll be asked when creating custom draperies is, "How do you want these to break?" This refers to how the bottoms will hit the floor. I try and stay away from the puddled look because it's not ideal for homes with shedding animals. Instead, I opt for drapes that break directly at the surface of the floor. The overall look is clean, tailored and carefree.
Those of you longing for an ounce of the puddled look, consider 1/2-inch of extra fabric for a leaning, stacked-back break along the floor.
