This sheffield valance could look like it is floating along the top of this long and narrow window. The long tails (or jabots) coming down to the half way point of the window help balance the look without the need for side panels.
The same sheffield valance with jabots is used in the bay window of the dinette with a long expanse of pleats (14 to be exact) to frame the windows and enhance the gorgeous views. Tassel trim and contrast lining finish the treatment.
