Question:

I sewed by hand simple curtains with coly/potton fabric and now want to make them thicker?

Our mortgage has us on a very limited budget, so I bought some beautiful fabric and hand-sewed very simple curtains with a thread and needle. I put them on very basic adjustable rods that mount in the window frame.I want to make them thicker to block out light, etc. Any suggestions? I was going to buy more fabric and hand sew that on top, and I even saw that black out fabric that is especially for blocking out light, but my fabric is poly-cotton and not really heavy. We live in a warm climate so we will need some circulation from the open window.Thanks in advance for your ideas.
