    DIY#3 has begun......

    Hey all well I jumped on #3 today. I have the front apron set but the pleats are giving me a fit. Oh well it would not be fun if there was not some challenge. I hope to have it done soon....I think a little brain storm between SirDaniel1975 and myself might fix the pleat issue. I know shut up and show some pic's.




    Sorry for the pic's being fuzzy. My camera is acting funny.

    Looks like you are on your way...what kind of pleats are you going to use?
    Many is a word that only leaves you guessing.

    I like it too, so much that I bought it, too. I guess those of us who have to shop Joann's and Hancock's are doomed to end up with the same fabric choices.

    I searched around a bit for a name for this one, but couldn't find anything. I think it's just a 'fashion' tartan.

    The obscure we see eventually. The completely obvious, it seems, takes longer.

    Box pleats, not sure if it is a "True" tartan. I just liked it.

    Well here are some pic's. Once again sorry they are fuzzy, for some reason this always happens when I take pic's in my kitchen. There should be 14 pleats when done.
