Pleat

A pleat is a type of fold that is created in fabric or other flexible materials by folding a section of the material over itself and then pressing or stitching it in place. Pleats are often used in clothing, particularly in skirts and pants, to add volume and texture to the fabric while still allowing it to drape gracefully. #pleat

Polyfill is a soft, fluffy, and synthetic material that can be used in place of traditional fillings such as feathers, down, or cotton batting.

Bias

In sewing, bias refers to the diagonal direction of a fabric. When you cut a piece of fabric on the bias, you are cutting it at a 45-degree angle to the straight grain and cross-grain. This creates a fabric edge that is more stretchy and fluid than a straight-grain cut. #Bias
