Can I ask, would you rather have turned the fabric over so the pattern would look more parallel to the ground than up and down? Most camo prints come this way as it's easier to manufacture but the pattern just doesn't look right to me when cut that way.
Never even thought of doing that, and it would have meant a seam every 60 inches (or whatever fell into pleat pattern).

On this particular fabric, there's another twist. You can just see faint white lines running from selvedge to selvedge. Unfortunately they don't run straight perhaps why it was on the remnants table! Not so noticeable when they are going up/down on the pleated kilt, as lots of other things run at an angle (A-line of apron, taper of pleats, etc.) but maybe very noticeable if I had tried to run them horizontal. But that's just this fabric.

Tell you what, you do one parallel to ground and show us how it looks

Currently negotiating construction of cargo pockets with the end-user; will report back later.
