Not long ago I found a website (in Ontario I think) that would pleat fabric for you for smocking, Now of course it is like it doesn't exist. Has anyone heard of a place you could send fabric to be pleated or buy from them and have them pleat it for you??
thanks

Thanks for the help, I may try Adrianne's after the baby arrives, I'd like to try smocking a bit before I spring for a pleater etc. Lord knows I have enough toys now :bluewink:

That is a beautiful vest. I have purchased alot from her,she is just one great lady. I always have to laugh,I say I send in anorder and go to the front door because it will be there. Suzanne has helped me pick patterns and just the right fabric I need for a project. If you have any questions just email her,she is very helpful.

I love smocking,if you need any help just let me kow and I will do my best to help you.

The link did not work for me. I love finding new smocking places.
