    Clologne Kiltmaker

    In the Westdeutsche Zeitung, a big paper around here there was a half-page article about a kiltmaker from Cologne:

    http://www.wz-newsline.de/sro.php?redid=154555

    Under the headline "Breezy things for courageous men" was a very good atricle with photo!
    I´ve invited him to the forum and certainly will look into his shop when I am in Cologne!

    And for those whose German skills faded right after high school graduation, there is a good translator in the language tools section of Google.

    Quite a good read, even with the translation. His web page is in English, tho it too is a computer translation. But those can be pretty fun, too.
    Nice Pictures on the website,too, of handstitching, etc.
    Nice Find, Herminator! Thanks!
