I much prefer the double pleat to the triple! So much cleaner and crisp looking! Thank you for your wonderful tips, I"ll be taking this course!

This was very helpful and interesting. I learned a lot from this tutorial and can now make my French 3-finger pleated curtains for our RV. I was confused what type of pleats to add to my flat curtain panels and how to make them as a brand new sewer with only one day of experience, but now I know what would look best and how to make it happen. Thank you so much for this excellent explanation of the different types of pleats and how to make them!

I have some beautiful linen bill out panels I put on our sliding door w a modern black wall track using drapery hooks. How do you suggest putting two of them together? I was going to maybe drapery hook the top of the two sides then use no sew curtain tape down overlapping them equal parts? Is there a better way to do this, or do you have a video on it?

[@user-bm4zd9xf3n]

thanks for the video, good job👍please tell me what tool you used to fix the pleat? I'm from Ukraine and I also sew curtains, but I've never seen anything like this. thank you.

Thanks for your comment. In this video Ann uses a "tagging gun" as well as large black binder clips to secure the pleats.

Can you tell me the exact rod and rings you are using? Maybe a link?
