ABSTRACT:
The top treatment includes a fabric sleeve having a pleating tape sewn along a backside with sections of one of hooks and loops spaced one from the other along the pleating tape and forming a part of a Velcro.TM.-type fastener. A header is secured to a headrail of a vertical blind and includes along an outer face an elongated strip of the other of the hooks and loops of the Velcro.TM.-type fastener. The fabric sleeve has a drawstring to form a pleated valance which is applied to the header by engaging the hooks and loops one with the other. In another form, a groover valance receives short lengths of slats having tapes containing another of the hooks and loops of the fasteners. By inserting the slats along the groover valance, the fabric valance may be applied to the groover valance. The slats and fabric sleeve may be provided separately in small soft packages.
