Dreaded Drapes

I am looking for detailed instructions on how to make my pleated drapes for our '73, 31ft, Sovereign. Any Help would be appreciated. I want to do these myself so I can use my fabric. I will start over the twin beds. I have never done pleated drapes before, completely new to me. The post I have found so far have been very limited. How many pleats are there on each side of the twins?

I just saw some that I really liked and they were really simple. Instead of the pleats that my 94 and yours have, she used the same amount of material and just attached the slides. It gathered nicely but just didn't have the crisp hard fold look at the bottom, it looked very good. A big 3"-4" hem at the top and bottom. If I see them next week in Mrytle beach I will take a pic.
