Roman Shades that cover edge to edge of a single tile and will appear as one large shade when placed next to each other. I've seen lots of gorgeous meshes for roman shades, but none would cover a full tile or they did not come in single tile.
Both meshes contain separate GUID's and can both be in game at the same time so as to increase the amount of colors and variations you can have.

The Meshes:
Roman Shades Bedding Match - These are mapped to take the main 512x512 section of the double bed, minus the foldover blanket sheet part. Some bedding may have this sheet/blanket part lower than Maxis and so some of it may show on the shades. I tried to use the maximum amount of the bedding as possible.
- Includes 5 Maxis Match wood rod recolors
- Takes its texture for the shade fabric from all Maxis and custom bedding
- The wood rod is re-colorable if you want additional wood or metal textures

Roman Shades - This is mapped to cover a 512x512 texture.
- Includes 5 Maxis Match wood rod recolors
- Includes 6 twill textures, including black, white, ecru, red, blue, chocolate and celery
- Has two separately re-colorable subsets, either the wood rod or the shade fabric

Roman Shades Woods Recolor - This is a recolor of the file Roman Shades and recolors just the shade part of the mesh. It contains six wood/bamboo shade textures.

Polygon Counts:
Polys: 632 Pretty low considering it's curvy!

Additional Credits:
Thanks to IgnorantBliss tutorial on adding recolorable subsets to packages
This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.
