I stapled the blind to the wood, but the velcro is a fab idea if you need to wash it regularly. I only used 3 rods and next time I'm going to sew the rod pockets to the lining before I attach the 2 bits of fabric together.
Anyway the arrow in the pic is where it is secured to a cup hook. And it's only partially up.

That's great. I am now inspired to do the same for my bathroom window. I have the blind for two years now but was sure how to go about it. I also love the neck warmer and tshirt you did. Great work. Very inspiring! Pam
