Then I made the draperies at 2.5x. That width. I put 4" in each space and 6" in each pleat, plus 4" for each trimmed lead edge. So, for example, on an area 36" wide, I multiplied that by 1.5 for a finished width of 54", then multiplied that by 2.5, which meant 135" of fabric plus the side hems and seams. I didn't think in terms of number of widths; I planned my pleats and spaces, and trimmed each cut so every seam would fall at the side of a pleat. hudsondebbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05386611278026615074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8255111671105547403.post-71953368953499029142015-08-07T01:32:54.894-04:002015-08-07T01:32:54.894-04:00these are beautiful.

How many inches in each space?Kathyhttp://kathyscurtains.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8255111671105547403.post-62499349040949276242015-06-16T21:06:54.017-04:002015-06-16T21:06:54.017-04:00Thank you, Susan!!!Thank you, Susan!!!hudsondebbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05386611278026615074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8255111671105547403.post-86261300326911710292015-06-16T13:52:02.353-04:002015-06-16T13:52:02.353-04:00Absolutely beautiful!Absolutely beautiful!Susan Woodcockhttp://www.homedecgal.comnoreply@blogger.com
