A guide to what is needed for marking up grids.[/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https://vimeo.com/461769496″ css=”.vc_custom_1601035403726{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_column_text]

Marking up

Cotton Poplin measures 21½ x 15”. Grid area 18½ x 11. The grid is half an inch square.  Match the grid size to the weight and handle of fabric you have chosen to use.[/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https://vimeo.com/462086552″ css=”.vc_custom_1601112865517{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_column_text]

Making Pleats

Cotton Poplin measures 23 x17”. The grid is half an inch square. You will need some fine pins. Stitching will eventually be worked on the vertical lines drawn on the fabric.[/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https://vimeo.com/461770266″ css=”.vc_custom_1601035545467{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_column_text]

Stitching and pulling up pleats

Ordinary sewing thread is used for tacking, (basting) to secure folds and pleats prior to working the shibori stitching. A knitting needle is used to adjust the folds when pulling up the threads.

Patterned Stripes

The folds in all three sit proud of the fabric.[/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https://vimeo.com/464907615″ css=”.vc_custom_1601891025759{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″ css=”.vc_custom_1599554612527{padding-top: 20px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;background-color: #f1f1f1 !important;}”][vc_column_text][swpm_login_form][/vc_column_text][button size=”small” target=”_self” hover_type=”default” text=”Back Level 2 list” link=”https://janecallender.com/shibori-stream-members-area/shibori-stream-level-2/” margin=”25px 0px 25px 0px”][button size=”small” target=”_self” hover_type=”default” text=”Back to welcome page” link=”https://janecallender.com/shibori-stream-members-area/” margin=”25px 0px 25px 0px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_separator type=”normal” color=”#dddddd” thickness=”1″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css=”.vc_custom_1599557441356{margin-top: 40px !important;margin-bottom: 40px !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column][vc_column_text]
