Welll done!!! First video I clicked and I don’t regret it! Straight to the point! Great step by step video! Love it :) thank you!
Your video is absolutely EXACTLY what I needed to see. I want PURPLE curtains with room darkening and my options for store-bought either are teen designs or heavy velvet which would collect so much dust. Now, I can go to my favorite fabric stores and find the fabric of my dreams, for my curtains!!!! Thank you for making this project start to come together for me.
You are such a good teacher! I actually believe that I can do this! Thank you so much.
Brilliantly simple, straightforward and informative. ALL tutorials should be created so!!!!!!!!!!!
Very BEST pleated curtain tutorial I've seen online! Thankyou VERY MUCH!
Superb! My mother made or pleated curtains decades ago and now it’s my turn!
I tried to find pleat pinch drapes in the stores to replace some old ones and couldn't find any. I decided to try and make them and did my research. I found this video and LOVED IT! It is great!!!! Thank you so much. You just made my life easier!
Thanks for this video and the list of items used. I just bought what it said. I have finished my project, which I probably wouldn’t have started without this video. Thanks!! I was going to upload a photo, but don’t see how.
This is wonderful. I couldn't seem to find a tutorial on adding pleater tape to store bought curtains, in order to create a more custom look, but your tutorial is a huge help! Thank you for such simple and clear instructions.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for a great tutorial...perfect! Now I'm not afraid to tackle pinch pleats!
Thank you so much! I've already finished my curtains (4 of them, eek!) just to find out that I've done it wrong. With your clear instructions I am ready to start all over again.
I just made curtains using this video and may I make a couple of suggestions for its next iteration? It would help to mention accounting for a pattern, luckily I caught this in time, but it meant forfeiting the nice 8" bottom hem I had cut for, instead, I had to use that extra fabric to line up my bold pattern across the top of all of my panels, otherwise, they would have been mismatched and would have looked poorly made. Also, be sure to test where your hooks are going to attach to the curtain rod, this video does not show that. I wanted my panels to cover the rod and in order to do that, I had to add an extra 3" of height (so another 6" of fabric considering the fold), this brought my panels up even more. I had measured them to land just above the floor, instead, they are 2" above. I am still very happy with my beautiful curtains. Oh one last thing, to those making the curtains - if you "train" your curtains to hold the pleat they will look even better (otherwise they droop at the edges even with sturdy outdoor fabric), to train them you can either tack them by hand or steam, press and let them set at least overnight with clips.
THANK YOU for this easy to follow video, it's much better than others I have found online.
These are great tips!

Great tutorial!
Great video I have been dreading tackling this project. You made it seem easier.
You can do it!
Thank you!
You're very welcome!
Great video but is there a tape for making Parisian Pleats aka Top Tack Pleats? I want to make some for my home and am not sure if I can just use tape and adapt the pleat, but the hook needs to be at the top of the curtain panel as I'm hanging the track from the ceiling.
Thank you Thank you Thank you. ♡
Hello and thank you for this excellent tutorial. I lined mine as well and am ready for the last step before hanging them-tacking the pleats. The drape fabric itself is heavy. Add in the lining fabric - well, I can already feel my fingers hurting from pushing the needle through the pleats. I know it is an optional stepbut Ireally want to do this. Doyou have any suggestions for the type of needle I should use to dfficiently pass through the bulky layers? Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks a bunch.
you are superb😍😍 (kerala)in India
Very good tutorial 👍👍
Great vidro, really help me! Thanx & keep success in everything you do..
Thanks, you too!
Wow, thank you for make it so simple. I will work work on a small window first.
Good luck!
awesome video!
Thank you!
Great video
Thank you!
This is such a great tutorial i look forward to making curtains..great option for renters like me to make it my own ❤
First class tips
I have been searching for similar pleater hooks with a higher hook. I want to attach it to the bottom of the rings. The position of this hook would interfere with the ring.
Does anyone know where to find approximately 3.75-length pleater hooks with the hook at the top?
Thank you.
Wooow i see now ! You very good ! thanx for you work ))
Glad you like it!
Precioso... pero me gusataria entenderlo .ESPAÑA
What does 8ft.of pinch pleat tape pull up to ?
Tq very much
You're very welcome :)
love this instruction, is this a triple pinch pleat? I would like a single pinch pleat, can I still do that with the same tape & hook?
I think it would work to use just the middle two tongs of the hooks to create a single pleat. I am also going to link our inverted box pleat tutorial which creates single pleats before flattening them. Just fold them in the opposite direction so the pleat is on the front instead of the back. Here is that tutorial -

Best of luck with your curtains!
Hi, I wanted to know if the hooks all have the end bracket. I have checked online in your store and was very confused about which ones to buy. Thank you for the helpful video.
A pack of the traverse pleater hooks comes with 10 of the hooks seen in the video. It also includes 4 end hooks, which we did not use. If you start the pleats further in from the edges, the end hooks go into the pocket near the edge so the ends of the header can be attached to curtain rings or traverse rods. The photo of the hooks shows one end pin and one pleater hook. The traverse pleater hooks are available in 3" and 3.25" lengths:

www.onlinefabricstore.net/3-1-4-inch-traverse-pleater-hooks-4-ends-10-pack-.htm
I hope that answers your question!
Thanks for the great video. I want to be able to make curtain panels with Parisian pleats, as I am going to hang them from a track that is installed on the ceiling. How can I adapt this tutorial video for that purpose? Is there a different tape I need for that? Parisian pleats are tacked at the very top of the curtain panel so that the pleats begin at the very top...as opposed to French pleats which are tacked @ 3-4 inches from the top of the curtain panel.
Thanks, in advance for any assistance.
We haven't tried this but I believe it would work to use the tape and the pleater hooks upside down. The hooks would then be facing the wrong direction but you could add pin-on drapery hooks like you would use for hand formed pleats: www.onlinefabricstore.net/1-1-2-inch-pin-on-drapery-hooks-14-pack-.htm
Good luck and let us know if you try this and it works!
How much fabric do I need for a 3 meter please?
this is great, thank you. How can I hook them to round hook clips on my rod?
There are hooks! If you scroll down to the bottom of the written tutorial, the 3rd to last photo will show you what they look like - www.onlinefabricstore.com/makersmill/how-to-make-pinch-pleat-curtains-with-pleat-tape/

Thanks Abdullah!
Hi, can you hang this curtain to regular curtain rod or it's requiring special curtain rod? Sorry I'm new with all this. Thanks
You can get eyelet curtain rings to hang the hooks on. We use them in this other pleated curtain tutorial: www.onlinefabricstore.net/makersmill/how-to-make-pencil-pleat-curtains-with-shirring-tape/
OnlineFabricStore.net thank you so much for the reply. And thank you for sharing ur talent 😉
Thank you! Very clear instructions. What is the brand of pleater tape you are using?
+DMS DMS Thanks! The pleater tape used is this www.onlinefabricstore.net/4-inch-best-pleat-pleater-tape-.htm

I don’t have a sewing machine. Can this pleated tape be attached with iron-on adhesive or fabric glue? Thanks, KP
You could try!! use something pretty heavy duty and make sure you allow it plenty of time to cure before hanging your curtain. Also I would recommend using a lighter weight material.
hello, which sewing machine are you using? because my machine does not stitch heavy fabric. thanks
Hi Muna, we're using a Brother Designio DZ2750.
muna zarin you need to get the right needle for heavy fabrics
For example the window is 5feet (w), 6feet (H), How many yard of fabric I should buy , if the fabric is 48"(W)also.
Hi Sandy, We estimate about 7 yards. You can try our drapery yardage calculator if you want to take other considerations into account, like hems and repeat: www.onlinefabricstore.net/yardcalc.aspx
Is there a video or instructions on how to line this? Thank you for a great video.
We sort of do. You can take all the lining instructions from this back tabbed curtain tutorial and apply them to your curtains. Check out that tutorial here - th-cam.com/video/yzFOAohzvCk/w-d-xo.html
@@onlinefabricstore thank you
I've not seen this type of pleater pin before. What kind is it? Couldn't find them in the fabric store (JoAnn's) Suggestions?
Ikea has pleater tape. Its name is Kronill.
Thanks Cree. I appreciate the info. Hope I have good luck making these :)
Hi Connie, You can find the exact pleater tape used in the video here: www.onlinefabricstore.net/4-inch-best-pleat-pleater-tape-.htm
And the hooks here: www.onlinefabricstore.net/3-1-4-inch-traverse-pleater-hooks-4-ends-10-pack-.htm
No instructions for liner though

Can you do mine. I'm in new zealand...
how much is the tape that was used here? how many curtain panels can you make with one "roll" of tape?
never mind. i just clicked on the link above and I'm pretty sure it listed this tape as $1.85/yd.
is that correct?
Yes, the 4" Best Pleat Pleater Tape that we used is $1.85/yd.
Is there box pleate tape? I can't find any. 🤔
There may be, but if there is, we don't currently carry it. We do have a video on how to make box pleated curtains but it uses buckram instead of tape. www.onlinefabricstore.net/makersmill/how-to-make-inverted-box-pleat-curtains/
I just want to say something if I may ! Can you make the music lower please , so we can considerate 😬 thank uuuuuu☺️😉
Concentrate 😅
Sorry about the music, we've made it lower in newer videos :)
@@onlinefabricstore thank you for this video, im altering srore bought rod pockets into pleated, i havent attempted to do this in 10 years i have lived in my house as my mom remarked making curtains was very hard to have them look good, so i never attemted it and felt defeated just by the idea of making them so thank you for this video, also the music is fine i used close captioning to make sure i was understanding the steps, so in a few days all supplies will be here wish me luck lol
Can thus be done without the tape?
It is not going to look as crisp without it, so I probably wouldn't go through all the work for it to not come out looking right.. If you are looking to do this to an existing curtain, just start at step 4!
Purchased these but the hooks are very jagged and keep catching. And tearing. The very thin pleater tape-- not happy
suzanne doherty I had the sameissue with the tape
Is pleater tape the same thing as buckram tape?
They are a little different! Both add structure to the header of your drapes but buckram is simply a strip of fabric and pleater tape has little pockets every couple of inches so you can insert hooks.
What's the size of the curtain that you're making here?
The fabric is 54" wide and the finished curtain panel when pleated came out to 28” wide. This was just a sample panel for the purposes of the video so the length wasn't very long.
The pleater tape replaces a buckram? Can anybody explain me that?
Hi Julius, buckram makes the drapery header stiffer with a more defined shape. The pleater tape serves the same function with the addition of pockets for the prongs.
@@onlinefabricstore For a translucent sheer this would be good to use or there is another type of pleat tape for it? Which one would you recommend?
When you sewed the bottom of the pleater tape to the fabric I guess you made sure not to sew the bottoms of the pockets closed??? I am a newbie at sewing.
Right. On this pleater tape, there's actually a line of different color thread on the top and bottom. I just sewed right on top of the line to make sure I didn't sew the pockets closed.
