I did it the other way around on one of my skirts, but it just seemed like extra work. :P Oh well.<br />I just learned something about pleating too - that if you spray a solution of vinegar and water, while you iron the pleats - or press the pleats - and let them dry completely after that - they will never wear out. :) I dound that to be very useful to me. I have a link here, where Jennifer from "historical sewing" writes about it (no spam, I promise). It's worked perfectly for me.<br />http://historicalsewing.com/simple-solution-to-perfect-pleatsParnuuna Kristiane Thornwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09324309195378788833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4627949378042931636.post-62143581913071221152014-06-02T23:02:25.923-04:002014-06-02T23:02:25.923-04:00What a great first try!
