Lower the top rail to bring in daylight over the top while the lower part stays closed for privacy, or raise the bottom rail like a standard Roman shade. It suits street-facing bedrooms, bathrooms and living rooms. This version comes in Plain, Flat or Pleated Fold with cordless or corded lift; for motorization, see \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sedge-cotton-blend-roman-shades\"\u003eSedge Roman shades\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the Sedge top-down bottom-up shade good for a bedroom?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, with the right lining. Sedge is a dense cotton blend (about 500 gsm) that softens daylight, but on its own it is not blackout. For bedrooms and nurseries, choose a blackout lining: White 150 gsm, White 250 gsm or Coffee 180 gsm. With the top lowered, light comes in over the shade by design, so close it fully when you need the room dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I measure for an inside mount?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure the inside width at the top, middle and bottom and enter the narrowest figure, to the nearest 1\/8 in. Do not subtract anything: the factory deducts 3\/8 in from the headrail. Measure height from the top of the opening to the sill. Sizes run 16–98 in wide and 14–119 in high. For an outside mount, enter the full area you want to cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould I order the Sedge sample book first?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe recommend it when color matters. Sedge comes in 31 colors, and screens can shift warm and cool tones.
