I love this machine:
I admit it looks a bit scary but it's actually quite fabulous. It's an industrial pleater, and when you thread it up you can work some fabric through and it comes out all crinkly!
I've been trying it with all kinds of fabrics from cottons to ribbons, so now I just need to boil them all so I can take the threads out.
With my fashion coursework due in next week, it's very time consuming at the moment and I'm sorry I've been neglecting all your lovely blogs! But after Monday (assuming my Fine Art is sorted too! Yet another deadline.) I'll hopefully have some more time to relax and read though them to my hearts content. Thank you to everybody who follows or comments this blog, or just takes the time to read my ramblings. :)

Oh! This machine is fabulous! So envy at you that you have it... As far as I know the fabrics should be mostly synthetic, so that the pleats would stay permanently.
Enjoy it! ♥♥♥
Amazing ! How did you get that fantastic machine ?
