I recomend sewing down the pleats 1/3. I think it has a slightly skirt like look when the pleats are open to the waistband. And remember, the Thrifty kilt is very light weight and the sewn down pleats helps against wind and abrupt movement. I talk from experience...
Skål!

Well if it's on the inside a regular walmart sewing machine will work, right?
And do I just sew the pleats the length, or only half or ????? vertically? Also! Do I do it right on the bend of the pleat, or!? Ugh. Haha.
