Easy Emulated Pleats – Free PDF Download

Description

All of the 16th Century Men’s Shirt and Women’s Smock patterns found here and on Etsy and on Amazon all feature an emulated pleat look using gathers. This FREE photograph illustrated PDF tutorial takes you step-by-step through the process of how to create this look. I’ve also included some historical references and examples which support the end result look that using this process will yield. It’s fast, easy, simple, predictable and looks awesome! The patterns include this process in their instructions, but this tutorial is far more detailed and illustrated.
