Some shots of this morning's progress so far:

First I cut the material in half so now I have 10 yards of 30" PV 'MacLeod Black' tartan.



Then I started pleating to the small stripe. I must say this Military box pleating is harder and slower than I thought it would be.



and here's a detail of the pleats. 10 done....21 more to go.


More pictures to come as I move along.
