Ruffled Shower Curtain

I've been eyeing up these shabby ruffled shower curtains for some time. Recently, I found this..

                                              Here
I figured, I can do this. I've just been waiting for the right material. This tutorial calls for 2 king sized flat sheets. I don't have a King sized bed nor do I want to buy those. I happened to find sail cloth table cloths at Marc's for $3.99 each. I bought 4 thinking I would make curtains and a shower curtain. I ended up using 3 50X 84" panels and a old shower curtain for this project. If you want a tutorial, follow the link. I am an avid sewer and found this project very time consuming. Could it be the three kids pecking me to death?!? No wonder the finished product is so expensive. If you make one, DO use a lined shower curtain. Mine is not perfect but is getting rave reviews from the offspring. My daughter thinks it looks like a prom dress. My son agrees and promises not to look under it!! Now..... my bathroom is screaming for a makeover.
I am really liking this shower curtain!
