Why is it that the best pictures are ALWAYS the ones that were taken before the treatment is fluffed and dressed? Anyway, this is a great example of lattice smocking. This look is achieved by marking a grid on the reverse of the flat valance after the widths are seamed together. Then the intersections are stitched resulting in this wonderful smocked front. Amazingly this is only 1 1/2 times fullness. A smaller lattice would require a smaller grid and for reasons I can't explain more fullness.
