Barb,

Just a nit-pic here but about three posts up you stated that to mark pleats on a self colored kilt you decide how deep you want the pleat to be, double that and mark .
I think what you meant was depth of pleat plus reveal.

I use 10 inches between pleat edge and pleat edge which give me 2" reveal + 4" depth....or 1" reveal + 4.5" depth.

Sorry, but the engineer in me gets picky some times.
