    Well, I finally ordered it!

    Well, I took the plunge! I ordered my 16oz. Lochcarron Clarke Ancient from Kathy Lare on Friday and made the payment today!

    I am so looking forward to seeing this real piece of artwork and wear it proudly on my wedding day. It will arrive before then, but my fiancee has made me promise not to wear it out before then - in other words, she can't see it until the big day, just like her dress. So I'll be jonesing long after I get it, until April 25th! But there might be a way for me to sneak it on and take a pic for here - we'll see!

    If you all can't tell, I'm very very excited!

    The bad thing is I'm not sure if I can wait!

    Good for you! You've made a great choice. This will be an heirloom piece for generations.

    Congratulations! And how wonderful that this kilt will be for your wedding. Congratulations on that too.
