Re: Add style and flair with pleats
I for one am not intending to be argumentative, but I stand by my previous post,it is important to get the facts right when teaching and especially posting information on the internet.

I disagree with starrsewsabit. It is vitally important that correct termanology is used. I have worked in theatre wardrobe departments for many years and if I instructed some one to cartridge pleat a sleeve head or waistband and they produce these pleats or pintucks the whole job would have to be done again costing time and money, not to mention possibly having to re cut from very expensive fabric.
