Eyebrow Window Pieced Shades

Ann made these two shades to cover the top Palladium windows in her home. These windows are also call "eyebrow" windows. The shades fold up, although she did not send me pictures with the shades raised. The photograph below shows the windows before they were covered.

Ann and her husband Mike constructed an arched board to match the arch of the window. They then covered it with cloth to match the shades and fastened the arched board in the window. They attached the pulleys to the bottom of the arched board. Ann reports that everything works well using this technique.
You can see the cords on the right-hand side of the shade. The cords for the Roman shade are white. The second set of cords are for the pleated shade and are simply pulled up out of the way. Below is a close-up of the un-covered larger Palladium window and below that a close-up of the pieced Roman shade.
