So I love my Stillwater Standards, but since day one that first pleat on the left has always kicked forward. Recently it's developed into quite a curl. Being the picky, fussy sort, this annoys me.

So the other night I set my good self down and took a close look at this. Come to find out that the right hand edge (the fringe) of the over-apron is A-shaped, but the left hand edge is not. That edge is creased straight down parallel to the stipes of the tartan. So, sez I...I can change that.

So I lay my Stillwater Standard Black Watch out on the ironing board and set the iron on "stun". When it was steaming, I carefully measured an equivalent distance out from the original crease as was sewn in on the fringe side. Then I flattened the original stillwater crease out and lay in a new one, good and hard.

Result? Looks great, no more kicking ahead, no more curl. So I did it to the Black one, too. Worked great there, too.

Huzzah! Life is sweet, so sweet that if I don't brush regularly, I might get cavities.
