Morningside Workroom Roman Shades
We sew every Roman shade in our Edmonton workroom to fit your window exactly. We help you choose the right fabric, fold and lifting system for a result that is beautiful and uniquely yours.
Raised folds and useful glass
A Roman shade gathers neatly at the top to clear your view. We consider your window frame and depth to ensure the stack sits perfectly, whether mounted inside or above the glass.
Face fabric and lining
We select linings to match your need for light control and privacy. The right fabric and weight ensure your shade hangs beautifully, creating a soft, calm environment in your home.
Buying details
Start with the construction, not just the colour.
How your shade looks when raised or lowered is just as important as the fabric you choose. We focus on the craft of the fold to ensure every piece is beautiful.

Explore the detailsTailored Edmonton workroom craft
Our Morningside Roman shades are sewn in our Edmonton workroom. We partner with you to select the perfect face fabric, lining, and lifting system to bring your design vision to life.
Materials and assembly
Your Roman shade is defined by your choice of face fabric, lining, and fold style. We suggest the best lifting system to complement your design, ensuring a beautiful and reliable finished product.
Comparing alternatives
Drapery offers a traversing sewn layer, while a roller shade provides a different raised profile and smooth fabric plane. Compare the same opening, mounting position and privacy requirement for clarity.
Your project journey
Creating your custom Roman shades involves choosing materials, assembly styles, and control types. We help you plan for everything needed, including removal of old shades, measuring, hardware, and access for fitting.
Plan for your actual window
We help you understand how your new shade will operate in your home. By focusing on your specific window dimensions and mounting style, we ensure your result is both functional and lovely.
Choosing your mount
The right fit gives a Roman shade room to fold neatly and sit comfortably at your window. We’ll discuss measuring for the chosen style and mount, including nearby handles and opening sashes, before your order is final.
See samples in person
The Morningside showroom is in Edmonton and visits are by appointment. Bring photographs and measurements; a screen image is not a reliable substitute for discussing texture, colour and light handling.
Itemised project quotes
A useful quote identifies the selected product or workroom construction, fabric or finish, controls, hardware and the agreed services. Compare those inclusions rather than just the total or a marketing image.
Coordinate your specific enquiry
We enjoy working with clients in Edmonton and Calgary. We provide clear guidance on installation and measurements, ensuring we address every detail of your unique project from the very start.
Calgary project support
Contact the Edmonton team with the Calgary project location and room photographs. Do not assume a Calgary showroom, local stock or an installation crew from a general product page alone.
Specific care plans
To keep your shades beautiful, follow the care instructions for your fabric and lining. Please do not remove battens or control components, as these are essential to the shade's specialized lifting assembly.
Recognizing limitations
Every assembly is unique to Morningside. Ask us about the specific benefits and limits of your chosen style to ensure it perfectly matches your expectations for your home's windows.
