Also, when you say the back pleats are the same, do you mean same as the front or same as this parisian skirt? Thanks for taking the time to reply!<br /><br />Rebeca from California :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1818227597672589935.post-13195032119921644162014-05-08T06:47:24.103-07:002014-05-08T06:47:24.103-07:00Hello!

I use one continuous piece of fabric for many of these pleated skirts.<br /><br />The Under the Sea skirt uses a similar methodology as this one with a zipper in the center back and one continuous piece of fabric. I did play with pleating placement in the front, but the back pleats are the same. I hope that helps! But please do let me know if you have any questions!SewPetiteGalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01146296944137057378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1818227597672589935.post-13841056893969416572014-05-07T21:57:54.703-07:002014-05-07T21:57:54.703-07:00Is your zipper on the side or center back? Can...Is your zipper on the side or center back? Can't tell from the pictures. It seems you have no side seams only the one seam that joins where the zipper is, am I correct? I also saw your under the sea box pleat skirt, but your pleat placement is not the same as this one. In that one you have one large pleat center front and then one on each side of the hips, much different looking than this one. Did you repeat the pleat placement on the back in the same way? Is zipper on the side or center back? Have you considered doing a tutorial on that version? I actually like the look of that version so much more.

It has a thicker consistency like a twill. I would recommend something semi-structured for this project to hold the pleats.
