Karen is the owner of Aspen Awnings. One of her regular customers talked her into making a Roman shade. Karen whipped one up in no time. She sent photos along with this nice note:

Hi Terrell!!!
I spoke with you and bought all the Roman shade parts from you for Aspen Awnings. I just wanted to let you know how incredibly well thought out your "how to" is on your site. Thanks so much for being on the web!!! Karen

Karen added in a later note: I would love to make only shades and get away from the upholstery. I'm sure she'll get lots of orders for Roman shades.
