OH WOW!!! This is going to be a first!!!! I'm gonna disagree with the master herself!!!!
Barb, I have done a couple of right over left apron kilts and there is really no need to reverse the pleats. Everything works fine. In fact with the pleats facing right over left the apron looks quite good. The only problem I found is the right edge of the new under apron sometimes catches on the underside of the reverse pleat in a stiff wind or if you run or dance.
and KCW, when your laying out your pleats there is one place you should never skimp and that is with the depth of the deep pleat and the reverse pleat. Sacrifice pleat depth in the back of the kilt if you must to retain the deep and reverse pleats as deep as possible.
