If the final length needs to be different that 15”, what’s the math formula for figuring out how much space between pleats?

I certainly have enjoyed your instruction and successfully made a faux Roman Shade. My husband helped me figure out exactly what dimension to cut the fabric as it was fairly expensive and not easy to get more if I needed it. He enjoyed your demonstration also. Have you ever made a relaxed Faux Roman Shade where the folds are softer? If so, do you have any suggestion for the Verticle and Horizontal spacing of the rings? I want a softer look. Thank you, Martha

ok I have a question about bias and straight grain, you start off with a straight grain piece in one of your examples but then as your pleating upwards your pulling the sides right up in a different direction, so then arn't the fibres then being pulled into an almost bias direction. i'm just confused a little because of that fact?

Scott, I followed your two videos closely for a first timer project on my grandmother's occasional chair. It turned out beautifully but I couldn't have done without your step by step instructions and very important tips like cutting the pattern a l-ttle bigger and how to tighten the springs. I chose to reuse the nails and not use a staple gun. I also kept the horse hair like you did. I did everything you did down to the Old English scratch cover. Thanks so much. Keep doing what you're doing.

Hi Scott, What do you recommend as a weight if the width of the shade is over 72"?
@Factorydirectdesignersworkroom2 ай бұрын
The weight used in the video goes up to 78” (I think) but you can also use 1/4” threaded rod from Lowe’s and it goes up to 8 ft. Depending on the material you are using you may have to make a rod sleeve to cover it.

@Factorydirectdesignersworkroom2 ай бұрын
Sorry I don’t have a method for this, however if you wanted more of a valance look you can make 3 separate valances 7-1/2”, 5” and 2-1/2” and sew them together at the top to make it look like on valance.

The tip with pulling one thread out works ONLY when (in case of shortening inexpensive ready-made curtains) the top was done the same way (which is doubtful). If you cut the bottom this way without checking the top...then 'good night, Buddy'. Good tip, but only if you make the whole thing by yourself. Otherwise: trying to get a 90° bottom seam with this method on a ready-made panel is like playing the lottery. Most inexperienced DIY-er will take your word that it'll be perfect. Still, a good video.

Hello Scott. Thank you for this very helpful video. However when I attach the last two sets of rings on both of the 5 inch mark they do not drape to create another fold but rather stack upon each other, which makes since when you think about it. I found I have to decrease the ring spacing to 3 1/2 inches to make the last fold show. And this would be in line with your formula of going from 6 1/2 to 5 then my assumption of 3 1/2. That is each ring placement decreases 1 1/2 inches from the previous one not counting the first placement which is set at 4 inches from the hem. Of course this formula only works for the faux Roman Shade. Can you comment on this please.
@joanlubas49732 ай бұрын
Hello Scott, Your measurements for the vertical ring spacing was absolutely spot on! Although I couldn’t wrap my mind around it, I decided to put my faith in your expertise and placed my rings vertically just as you recommended. The faux shades came out PERFECTLY. I’m the kind of person who likes to understand why things works out and after I put the shades together I realized that there is a ‘hang’ factor involved. Your spacing took that into account. Thank you again for this very informative video.
@Factorydirectdesignersworkroom2 ай бұрын
Hi there! So sorry for the late reply! The only reasons I can think this formula didn’t work for you is if you used very small rings or you didn’t use the clip rings like I show and just tied the rings together which would not allow for the rings to relax. One of the benefits to clip rings is you can use additional ones as spacers to separate the rows if necessary. We also use thermal insulated lining on the back which adds body and creates a softer fold. I’m sorry it didn’t work out for you!
