Introduction
Welcome to “How To Sew A Traditional Swag Valance”!
You’re about to learn exactly how to sew a professional swag valance. Yes, I do mean
professional. This is exactly how professional workrooms and designers make those
amazing pleated swags you see in showcase homes.
These instructions are for a cutout swag valance. A cutout swag valance has formal pleats
that create a full swag. The magic of this window treatment is the ease of the
installation… most people assume the decorator simply draped some fabric neatly over a
pole. The swag valance is far more involved… and it looks 10x better than if you just
draped fabric over a pole.
A very similar window treatment is a traditional swag valance… which has the fabric
going straight across the top. I do not cover this style of valance in this book… you can
find this style in the e-book “How To Sew A Traditional Swag Valance”.
Each chapter walks you through the process of designing and sewing your window
valance. Trust the instructions and measurements… take it step by step… and you are
going to be amazed at how easy and fast sewing a swag valance will be!
Let’s get started!
Chapter 2.
How To Use This Book
Sewing traditional swags… just like the designer swags you see in decorating
magazines… is surprisingly easy. The trick is to follow the measurements used in this
book and you’ll be successful.
You may look at these numbers and start trying to figure them out… try to make sense
and understand them… but I can tell you, it’s a long and painful explanation as to why
the measurements are the way they are. You would have the same measurements as well
if you made every single size out there.
The point of this book is to make sewing traditional swags EASY. So, here’s how you
need to use this book.
1. Print out your swag worksheet. You’ll find this in the very next chapter. On this
worksheet you’ll see spaces for measurements you’ll need to fill out. As you read
through this book, you will get those measurements. For now, just print the
worksheet.
2. Then, you’re going to design your window treatment. I give you lots of examples
to help you.
3. Next you’ll need to decide the width and drop of your swag. You’ll find guidance
for this in the chapter called “Measure Swag Width and Drop”
4. The book will then guide you through your fabric yardage and marking your
fabric.
5. As you are shown how to mark your fabric you will be directed to the
Appendices. Here you will find the exact information you need for your swag
width and drop. You will need to print a pleat triangle. You’ll know which one to
print once you’re at that step.
6. Very quickly you’ll be pleating and installing your swag.
So… trust the instructions… follow them step by step… and you will have a professional
and stunning traditional swag on your window in no time.
Chapter 3.

Supplies
Chapter 4.
Face fabric – refer to the yardage chapter. Be sure you get enough for all of your swags
plus jabots or drapery panels.
Lining – you’ll need the same amount as the face fabric.
Interlining (optional) - you’ll need the same amount as the face fabric.
Matching thread
Decorative Trim (optional)
1” wide self adhesive Velcro loop tape – you’ll need a strip that is as wide as your cut
board plus returns for a board mount… or measure in a diagonal fashion around your
drapery pole the full length of the pole. See the chapter on installing your swag.
Velcro Mounting Tape – you’ll need a strip for each swag… each strip should be the
finished width of the swag PLUS 2”.

Chapter 5.
Design Your Window Treatment
Here comes the fun part! Before you can make you swags, you need to know what
exactly it is you’re making.
You may already have an idea of the window treatment design you want… but just in
case, I thought I’d give you some creative ideas to help you.
Take a look at the following examples to help you decide how your window will look
when you’re all finished. Think about the number of swags… fabric… color… will you
have jabots… pleated drapes…
Once you have a good idea of the design you want, move on to the next chapter to
measure for your swags.
Often times you’ll see a window with just one swag..
Above is one swag… but you rarely see a window with just the swag. A common
window treatment design will have a swag with jabots on each side.
You can have the jabots under the swag.
Or on top of the swag.
k
Many swag window treatments have three swags, like the photo on the front page of this
book.
You can have an odd number of swags side by side across your window.
You can have the swags overlap each other.
You can use a different fabric for the different layers of swags to add dimension.
Instead of overlapping swags, you could have jabots overlap the edges of the swags.
As with any of these design ideas… rarely do you see a swag treatment not have jabots or
drapes at the outer edges. So, one of the layered ideas above may look like this when
finished…
It’s a good idea to sketch out your idea… play with using a main fabric and a solid
contrasting fabric. Maybe your swags have fringe trim along the edges. The swag valance
on the front page of this book has a tassel fringe along the edge.
Look through magazines to get some ideas… many home and garden websites have
images of traditional swags as well.
Remember, these instructions only show you how to create the swag. You will need the
e-book “How To Sew Jabots” for the different types of jabots at www.window-valancepatterns.com.
When you’re ready move on to the next chapter.
Chapter 6.
Measure Swag Width and Drop
You don’t need to install your hardware to plan for your swag(s), but you do need to have
an idea of your window treatment design.
Are you going to hang your swags from a drapery pole or a board?
How high do you plan on installing your swags from the top edge of the window?
How many swags are in your window treatment design?
How long will your swag be at its longest point?
How many pleats do you want for each swag?
Are you interlining your swags?
These are questions you need to ask yourself as you are planning your swags… because
your answers will affect the final measurements of your swags.
Keeping these ideas in mind, drape a string at your window to mimic the shape of your
swag. Then measure the swag width and drop.
Swag Width

Drop

Once you have general measurements for these 2 dimensions, refer to the chart below to
find the sizes that best match your measurements.
The instructions in this book will cover these swag sizes:
Swag Drop 11”
14”
17”
20”

32” – 52”
36” – 58”
26”
29”
42” – 60”
46” – 60”
Enter your Swag Drop and Swag Width measurements on to your work sheet.
Please keep in mind that your finished swag may differ in size by as much as 1
inch. This is because every fabric is different based on stretchiness and how well
it drapes.
If your window treatment design includes more than one size of swag, print out a separate
worksheet for each swag.
Chapter 7.
Fabric and Lining Yardage
There are 2 ways to make a swag… on the bias or railroaded. Bias cut swags hang much
nicer than railroaded swags… but there are reasons for doing both.
When looking at your fabric… the threads run horizontally and vertically. Now, if you
were to cut your fabric at a 45 degree angle… this is called cutting on the bias. The
reason bias cuts are nicer for swags is that fabric drapes and curves easier on the bias.
However, if you cut your fabric on the bias for your swag, your fabric pattern will be
turned 45 degrees. For many prints and solids, this is not an issue. If you are making a
swag with a striped fabric, then you probably want your stripes to run vertically. So, in
this situation, you would railroad your fabric.
Once you decide if your fabric will be bias cut or railroaded, refer to the corresponding
yardage chart below:
Bias Cut Swag
Swag Drop

Yards
11”
20” – 30”

Note: Yards listed is for fabric only. You will need the same amount of lining and
interlining.
Enter your fabric, interlining and lining yardage on to your work sheet.
IMPORTANT
The yardage calculations in the charts above are for ONE swag valance. If you are
making more than one valance, make sure you add up the correct number of yards. For
example, if I’m making three 28” wide swags I will need a total of 4 ½ yards of fabric, 4
½ yards of lining and 4 ½ yards of interlining.
Decorative Trim
If you are planning on sewing a decorative trim to the edge of your swag, then you will
need (2 x CBW) + 4”. Continue on to the next chapter to discover what CBW is.
Note about interlining
Interlining your swags is optional. Interlining is a soft layer that you insert in between
your fabric and lining. It adds softness, fullness and protection to your fabric. Adding
interlining to silk window treatments makes all the difference between home sewn
window treatments and custom made professional window treatments.
Again, interlining is optional… but recommended.
You can find interlining and lining at www.draperysewingsupplies.com
Chapter 8.
Cut Your Fabric and Lining
Find CL, CBW, and CSW
Find your swag width in Appendix A.
Find your swag drop length in the chart and enter the measurements onto your worksheet.
You want CL, CBW, CSW and the pleat triangle.
Railroaded Swag
Cut your fabric to (CBW x 2) wide by CL. You may need to piece your fabric widths to
achieve the width of 2xCBW
CBW x 2
CL
Bias Cut Swag
If you require 1 1/2 yards of fabric, then cut a 54” x 54” square of fabric, lining and
interlining.
54”

If you require 4 yards of fabric, then cut a 54 ½” x 72” rectangle and a 18 ½” x 72”
rectangle.

Piece these 2 rectangles together with a ½” to create a 72” x 72” square of fabric. Do the
same for the lining.

Chapter 9.
Make Your Swag
Fold Your Fabric
If you are interlining your swag, lay your interlining and fabric wrong sides together.
Treat this as one piece… as your fabric.
Lay your fabric and lining right sides together. Pin to keep the fabric and lining from
slipping.
For a bias cut swag, fold the fabric into a triangle with the lining side out.
Bias Cut
Folded Edge
For a railroaded swag, fold the fabric lining side out… aligning the side edges of the
fabric. Orient your fabric so that the top end of your fabric pattern is on your left.

Mark Your Fabric
The follow instructions apply to both bias cut swags and railroaded swags. The diagrams
will show the bias cut material, but you can easily apply the same steps to your railroaded
material.

worksheet and print it. (example: Pleat Triangle 6AB)
Step 1.
Mark Triangles
Step 1.
Cut out your Pleat Triangle neatly along the lines.
Step 2.
Align the dotted line on the triangle with point E and the straight line
(refer to the diagram)
Using a straight edge and marking pen, trace the edges of the triangle from
the dotted line. Remove triangle.
Step 3.
Step 4.
Align your Pleat Triangle next to the shape you just drew (refer to the
diagram)
Step 5.
Using a straight edge and marking pen, trace the edges of the triangle.
Step 6.
Slide the triangle over and repeat across the straight line.

Cut Fabric and Lining
Cut out your fabric and lining along the drawn shape. Unfold and press. Make sure you
keep the lining and fabric pinned together.
Sew Your Swag
Step 1.
Sew a ½” seam along the bottom and top curved edges.
1/2”
1/2”
STOP! If your window design includes a decorative trim, you will need to include this in
step 1. Lay the trim in between the lining and fabric aligning the bottom curved edges of
the fabric and lining with the raw edge of the trim. Pin as necessary. Then sew the ½”
seam.
Turn the fabric and lining right sides out and press the seams. If you
included a decorative trim, you will see it along the fabric edge now.
Step 2.

Chapter 11.
Install Your Swag
There are 2 ways to hang a traditional swag. You can attach your swag to a 1 x 3” board
… or you can attach the swag to a decorative pole.
Board Mount
Cut the board to the finished width of your window treatment. If you are only making one
swag, then the board would be cut to the swag width. If your window treatment includes
multiple swags, you will cut your board to the planned width of the overall design.
Window Treatment Width
Adhere the loop tape to the top of the board… along the front and side edges of the dust
board.
loop tape
Decorative Pole
Wrap the loop tape in a diagonal fashion around the drapery rod… covering the areas of
the pole where the swag will be installed.
If you are installing just one swag or swags with no overlapping…
without jabots or drapery panels…
Then sew a strip of 1” wide hook tape on the wrong side of the swag… along the top
edge.
Stick the swag to the board… matching Velcro strips.
Or stick the swag to the drapery pole.
For all other layered swag treatments…
Lay the swag right side
up on your work surface.
Step 1.
Cut mounting tape and
double face tape 2” longer than the
swag width.
Step 2.
Stick the double face tape
on to the back of the hook half of the
mounting tape… but not on the fold
line. (The loop side is the soft fuzzy
side.)
Step 4.
Lay the mounting tape
with the back side facing up.
Step 3.
Step 5.
Peel off the release paper.
Stick the top edge of the swag onto the mounting tape with the top edge
aligned with the fold line of the mounting tape… 1” of the mounting tape should
extend off of each side.
Step 6.
Step 7.
Fold the loop half of the mounting tape over the top edge of the swag.
Step 8.
Stitch across the swag close to the tape edge.
IMPORTANT: Sew with the swag right side up.
Step 9.
Cut along the fold line of the mounting tape until you reach the face
fabric.
Step 10.
Cut and remove the hook half of the tape.
Step 11.
Turn the swag over to the lining side.
Fold the remaining loop
portions into triangles.
Step 12.
Then fold them to the back of the swag.
The loops will stick to the hooks.
Your swags and jabots can now be easily installed onto your dust board or drapery pole.
As long as you have the loop side (soft fuzzy side) of your Velcro tape on the back side
of your swags and jabot… and the hook side always on the face side… you will be able
to easily layer multiple swags and jabots. Plus reposition them as needed!
IMPORTANT: When installing layers of swags and jabots onto a drapery pole, it’s
important to note which side of the pole you plan on hanging your jabots… or drapes.
Some designs have every thing hanging on the front of the pole. Other designs have the
swags on the front of the pole, but have the jabots hanging from the back of the pole.
If you plan on having the jabot or drapery panel hang from
the back of the pole… be sure to apply the mounting tape so
that the hook side is on the face side of the jabot or drape.
The only thing left to do is to install the board to your wall
using angle brackets… or install the drapery rod and
brackets above your window.
