| Pleated Border |
|
|
|
| Cut two 12" x 3
3/4" strips AG1229, one from the bottom edge
and one from the top edge. On the back of one strip,
mark and score at the following measurements across
the strip: 1", 1 1/4", 2 1/4", 2 1/2",
3 1/2", 3 3/4", 4 3/4", 5", 7",
7 1/4", 8 1/4", 8 1/2", 9 1/2",
9 3/4", 10 3/4", 11". This is the
center of the pleated border with a 2" box pleat
in the center. |

5" and
7" folds back and then accordion pleat in each
direction from there. Adhere to the center of the
page 1 1/4" from the lower edge. |
 |
 |

1/4" intervals across the strip (1", 1
1/4", 2 1/4", 2 1/2", 3 1/2",
etc.). |
[I cut this piece in half before
pleating. To make your pattern match, you need
to pleat in opposite
directions.] |

both ends of the center strip, overlapping and trimming
ends as needed to
extend across the page. |
