Oh, and by the way, welcome to the forum! I just realized you have already looked at the Corduroy X-kilt thread-the info you need is the bit where I had to rip out the velcro and sew it OVER the deep pleat. Then, when you anchor the waistband it will also add some strength.

Be well,
So, the deep pleat goes under the outer apron. What is all the business about opening up the deep pleat and folding it back 2.5" etc. Is there a second part to the process that you just skipped?
I am guessing that the underapron deep pleat will be treated about the same way.
I think my next one will have a square apron. I think it will be easier for a beginner. (I call myself a beginner not because I am a beginner at sewing but because I am a beginner at making kilts.)

Thanks a ton for the help on this and simplifying it.
