Yep. I messed up the flat-fell seam on my first attempt and then I found this tutorial on Master Terafan Greydragon's site. Aside from a couple of places where my fabric bunched up, the seam looks pretty good.
I also flat-felled the valance to the roof, but that wound up looking ugly so I pulled that seam towards the inside of the shade and sewed another seam, which basically made that join look like a French seam. That had the side effect of shortening my valance's height by about three inches. D'oh! Oh well, that's what learning curves are for, right?
