I wanted to see the different way's I could create the folds in the pleat visually.
Got the fabric from Scotland recently and it looks great.
Thanks
Chris:
Rocky's suggestion is what I usually do and highly recommended.
One other easy way (since you already have your fabric) is to just lay out folds (as you would do when you are getting ready to pin and sew the pleats) in the fabric that you have. Try centering different elements of the sett on the pleats and then stand back 10-12 feet from the fabric. You'll be able to get a good idea of what the completed kilt would look like.
