    Well, that's much better than my "eyeball it and hope for the best" method. Very clever!

    • @NotchesSewing
      @NotchesSewing  Před 2 lety

      LOL- yes definitely better than that method and also better than using a fork for accuracy …. Please share and check out some of my other tutorials. Cheers!

    Wow!!! This is a brilliant idea and this tool definitely makes it easy. I spend hours making a pleated skirt couple days ago and it was frustrating.... and dreading making another skirt. so I just searched on "easy pleat board" to find a simpler faster way to make pleats and found your video! Thanks so much for sharing this ingenious idea and tool.I will try this method soon.

    • @NotchesSewing
      @NotchesSewing  Před rokem

      Glad you like it. This won’t create long sharp pleats from waist to hem if that is what you are after. Pleat board is best to do that otherwise you will still need to do a lot of measuring and pleating. Thanks for watching😊

    • @kay2577
      @kay2577 Před rokem

      @@NotchesSewing I just wanted to make knife pleats or box pleats for skirts and easier way to pin and sew them at the waist... so your creation would work amazingly well. I will make it in 1 and 1.5 widths so it will cover all my pleating needs. :) Thanks again!

    This is totally awesome, I use the cutting mats from Dollar Tree they were 2 for a dollar before they raised their price to 1.25$ but still a good deal for templates.

    • @NotchesSewing
      @NotchesSewing  Před 2 lety +1

      That’s a great price! No dollar tree here in Australia where I am…..

    Back in the late 1950's and early 1960's I wore pleated skirts. It took a long time to get those pleats even. It would have been wonderful to have known how to do this then. However, I do make pleats on many items (like on the bottom of slip covers). This is good to know. Thank you for this video.

    • @NotchesSewing
      @NotchesSewing  Před 2 lety

      You’re vey welcome. Give it a try with some scrap. It’s quite satisfying. Have a great day!

  • @TechieSewing
    @TechieSewing Před 2 lety

    I'll try this out! I've tried the fork but it works way better for zipper pulls ;)
    My usually method is to mark each one with a projector and then fold and pin each by hand but I'd love to graduate to something faster.

    • @NotchesSewing
      @NotchesSewing  Před 2 lety

      This will save you a bit of time without the pins especially if you have very long lengths to make. Have fun!

    Hi! What’s the fabric name? Is it satin?

  • @SparkyOne549
    @SparkyOne549 Před 2 lety

    I use a fork.

    • @NotchesSewing
      @NotchesSewing  Před 2 lety

      Fork will work but not perfectly square and not flat enough for accuracy
