Please disregard. I believe I have the information requested. Thanks.

Hi,

If the information you required was "How to sew a military box pleat kilt", would you mind pointing me in the right direction please?

As I recall, I sort of thought I'd figured it out. In the end, however, it would have been a lot of unnecessary work. In the end I never did it as my client elected to go with knife pleats to the stripe.

Thanks Arnot.

I was thinking that maybe it is stitched like a traditional box pleat but due to the excess fabric, rather than make a "box", bend it around 180° to face the same direction as sewing progress and then baste it down. Does that sound right?
