This is just a rough outline of making the Box Pleat roses. I am using Polyester ribbon 16mm( almost .75 of an inch) and 60mm ( almost 24 inches) long. Fold one edge over to make an angle. Stitch to secure so it doesn't fray. Roll this along the ribbon and this is the center of your rose. Then you make the box pleats about half an inch wide stitching the bottom as you go. When you finish all of these to go back to the beginning and roll the box pleats over and stitch again on the bottom as you go, keeping the bottom flat. Tidy the end of the ribbon over the stitching on the bottom of your flower. You can use any size ribbon and adjust the length accordingly.I find the ribbon with satin both sides is too hard to manage. My ribbon is satin one side only. Hope you can understand this. I find it easier to show someone than to explain. Lyn
