    well, you're not gonna want to have a half pleat right? ANd the book suggests putting slightly more room in the back than in the front. 1" is the upper end of what you want, but if you'd like, for simplicity's sake to keep that the reveal you could make your split 20" in the front and 21" in the back. Then do 21 pleats w/ 1" reveals.

    Ok, making more sense now.

    I think I'll back it off and go with 20 pleats in the back. Or, should I be using the hips measurement and go with 23 pleats?

    Thanks!
