Box Pleat.

In our pattern cutting lessons we have been looking at different aspects of a skirt; for example, Zips, Pleats and Button holes. Recently we looked at a box pleat in a skirt.

We only did the front part of the skirt as it was a sample but it shows the effect of the box pleat. I think that this was a very useful adaptation to learn and I feel that I will be able to use it in a future garment.
