Barb - great article, thanks for submitting it. If you were to work with a single color fabric, what pleat size would you recommend for best look and swing?

I'd aim for a pleat size (reveal) at the hips of somewhere around 3/4-7/8" and a pleat depth of 3 1/2" or so. If you're an average size person, that will use up about 8 yards of tartan (4 yards double width).
