Even with Barb's excellent Basting the pleats for pressing thread, this sewing neophyte still doesn't quite grasp the descriptions provided. I copied one of her photos and have arrows to the parts I want to make sure I'm understanding. When you've finished basting, each pleat should be stitched to the pleat immediately before it and the pleat immediately after it, correct?

In the attached photo, the stitches circled in red on the bottom baste the pleat pointed to by the blue arrow to the one pointed to by the green arrow, correct? And the stitches circled in red on the top baste the blue pleat to the purple pleat, correct? And each stitch goes through the two layers of the blue pleat and the two layers of the green or purple pleat, respectively, correct?

Thanks!
