Pleats please...

It 's realy a small world. Yesterday's post was about pleated skirts I am working on now. This morning I was checking my mails and I got this newsletter from Historical Sewing.com. An you know what ? It was all about techniques for easier pleating. I've noticed those coincidences happen all the time in the sewing blogosphere.

Of course, it concerns 19th century costuming but it can be very useful for today's sewing.

I like reading historical costumes blogs though I am not into period sewing myself. What I particularly is the techniques used for making corsets. Maybe one day I'll make one for myself.
