I am just about to calculate the pleats and space into a1.5 witdth curtain ( nothing new there) but theres one thing that bothers me when I look at the finished job.
When the curtains are stacked back, the gap fold projection is further forward than the pleat itself. I would really like to see the pleat projection so the pleats are the main focal point seeing as they sit in front of the fascia board, not a bunch of pleats and folds
I am guessing that the pleat needs to be made bigger than the normal allowances of between 12cm - 15cm and the gaps smaller.
Does anyone have a standard method that takes this into consideration?
Curtain flat width is 201cm
Each finished curtain with needs to be 98cm inclusive of 10cm return, 8 cm overlap and 5cm spring back allowances.
Any advise greatly appreciated
