Pleating Workshop

Pleating Workshop:
I found this work shop very interesting as we met the man (i want to say Terry) who created the patterns for these intricate pleats.


It was good to see and try how he creates the templates for the pleats. By folding the paper as required by drawing the fold lines first. Then repeating the process with a new layer then with the fabric laying in between when steamed it takes on the shape of the folded structure.




This was my favourite piece that he showed us as it was interesting to see the development of his work and how from this you could picture it on a garment.
