Pleating with Helen


The pleating program this month will cover how to pleat a variety of fabric types including cotton, silk, wool, rayon, linen, plaids, "waled" fabrics (pique and corduroy) and even knits. Please bring your pleater, if you have one, and needles, pleating thread, tools for changing needles, etc. I will bring an irons and lace shaping boards for any needed pressing. Your kit will include written instructions and samples of each of the fabrics mentioned.
