To tell the truth, the trim is just a christmas pressent ribbon, but it looks very nice, and i baught yards and yards of it. Its because it has the look of antique gold, and not the shiny man made fiber crap you find in trim stores. Oh gosh its going to be so boring to make all that pleated trim, it has trim all over....................

This sounds like a job for power tools! Most of us have seen, used or owned the little 1/4cm pleater (or 1/8th inch) for a standard sewing machine. Those are ok for lightweight ribbons & excellent for fine & lightweight fabrics. For ribbon, the standard is just too tiny. There must be some sort of pleating machine or sewing machine attachment for pleating in 1cm - 3 cm fan & box pleats in grosgrain, satin or velvet face ribbons. They do exist for industrial ribbon manufacturing. How 'bout at the home or small dressmaker's shop scale? Know of one? It would be just the thing.
