When you've finished your pleats and have checked that they're the right width, pull out all the threads, it's easier now rather than leaving it till later. Iron flat and trim where required. I used this technique to position my bust darts as well and found it very easy and accurate! Good Luck!

    This has brought memories flooding back of sewing with my grandma almost 30 years ago. Thank you.
