I know there are lots of threads on this but can anyone just give me a quick answer?
I am making curtain, triple pleats with 2.5 fullness and have already worked out the following,
Pole 204cms finial to finial, therefore each curtain will have 9 pleats @18.5cms (166.5cms) 8 spaces @ 12.5cms (100cms) flat width so far 266.5cms
what I'm not sure about is: how much should I add for the centre, ends and springback to get my final flat width, I thought 6 cms at each leading edge so when closed will give the effect of a full space (12cms) but not sure about the side edges and springback. I think I'm confusing myself by thinking too hard!!
Many thanks
