    Sooo how do you intend to pleat it?

    To the sett? Maybe a stripe?

    Or do we have to wait for the photos?

    The sett for this tartan is 6". I am going to use 3" box pleats and use 1.5 setts per pleat. In effect I am pleating it to the sett. Matt gave me the idea before I ordered the material. You don't usually get a box pleat to the sett. We'll see how it goes.
