You should sew the hems and the fabric to the roller first, then spray the stiffener.
This does depend from fabric to fabric. Our recommendation would be to contact your blind supplier and find out if the fabric can be dry cleaned. If this is not possible, on the market there are several kinds of cleaning spray which can be used on fabrics. If you do choose to do this it is important to test the spray on a small area of fabric first to check for colour fastness.
Roller blinds are is a window blind that is attached with a roller. They are great window coverings that let you control the entry of sunlight and heat, as per your requirement.
If possible take the entire blind down. Roll the blind to it's full open length. Spray with diluted chlorine bleach and scrub the mold and mildew off. Allow to fully dry, then rehang the fresh clean blinds.
mI am blind, and I absolutely love all the roller coasters at Cedar Point. In fact, I think blind people can get even more of a thrill out of roller coasters because the sight aspect is almost, if not entirely, eliminated so they experience and perceive the ride differently than those with sight.
Fabric blinds are not difficult to keep clean. Many models of fabric blinds are fully washable, making it very simple to maintain them.
Use a roller blind with the roller on the hypotenuse and tapering to the mid point on the opposite side and secured with a hook

I've made shades with fabric. I used a kit; this isn't neccesary. You just have to supply the roller. A liquid fabric stiffener would make the fabric too stiff to roll. Go to a fabric store and buy the heaviest weight iron on interfacing. Just iron it on the back of your shade fabric, leave an inch if you plan on lining.To cover the interfacing, get an inexpensive lightweight fabric e.g. muslin, fold under the fabric and lining one inch and either sew on edge or use a fusible hem product. Good luck! Sherpy
This one is easy - though I am here as I have the opposite problem! I bought a bottle of Pretty Frills Blind Company Fabric Stiffening Solution at Dunelm Mill (UK retailer) for just £4.89. You dilute it with water in a bowl, dip the fabric in for a couple of minutes, remove and hang to dry. Then just iron it. However, I would recommend diluting it more than it says, and don't pour over the remaining liquid as it dries thinking it will help even more - my fabric has ended up too stiff to make a roller blind with! So - I've tried washing it to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas on how to unstiffen it?!
