We have a very wide living room window and want to get rid of the
horrific vertical blinds that are there now, put in simple sheers, with
a plain curtain rod.

The window is about 9'11" which means with 4" overlap on each side we
need a 10'7" pole.

use the 10 footer and add short extension to one or both ends.
Could be as simple as driving a wooden dowel into pipe.
