We've spent the last couple of weeks getting estimates on window treatments
for  our great room & we've gotten estimates that were a lot more than we
are willing to spend (about $400-$500/window).  We got these estimates from
places like Decorating Den, Sears, Penney's & Belks.   The mail order
catalogs didn't works because they didn't have anything in the
colors/prints I wanted.   
I have a pretty good idea as to what I'd like to have.  Could anybody
recommend someone who "does" drapes at a reasonable price (about
$50-$75/window for a jabot & cascade)?  I'd supply the fabric, of course. 
I'd be willing to make them myself if I knew how to.  Is there anyone in
the Cary/Raleigh area who teaches sewing?   Are there any other options I
haven't considered?  Any information would be greatly appreciated.
