Very little need for math at all. ************ Having been the one who brought up math, I must say here that I agree. I mean the math will never be completely accurate unless you take into account the thickness of the fabric and its stretchability, if any and stuff like that. Let's not get ridiculous. But it is good to know and keep in the back of your mind that full return pleats need 3 times the fabric. It's just a reference point. And I usually do the equation I wrote out on, like, 1/2 a skirt's measurements to help me keep things symmetrical on the other side. But fudging is always required. I like how in many 19th century skirts, where long straight lengths are being pleated into tiny waists, the pleating will be regular (more or less) in the front and sides, with the right, balanced, volume of fabric being the obvious concern, and then whatever is left over is cartridge pleated into inches of CB....Cartridge pleating being easy to distribute. **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above.
