Hi, welcome to Expert Village, I'm Gretchen Soares with Butterfly Boutique. So what we want to do now that we have our lining piece ready to insert, we're going to prep the top of our curtain so that we can insert it. We're going to mark one inch and put our first crease line. Now we're back at the iron because we're using the fabric and it won't melt. So we mark our one inch crease, so we pin it in place on our ironing board. We're going to press our crease mark in using lots of steam and a pressing motion not a gliding motion. Pin on to the ironing board. Mark one inch and press. Now we're going to go ahead and press our second crease in. This one's going to be two inches. And go ahead and press that in place. Okay.
