Little Brother's first "kilt"
My younger brothers were questioning me about how the kilt was made, so I gave em a quick history lesson, and the youngest, who is 7, asked if I could make him a Feileadh Mor to wear.......so I grabbed a throw blanket and whipped him into this, grabbed my longsword (no, not claymore) from my wall, and let him have some fun for a while.....

Nice, great way to explain the origins of the kilt by using the blanket.

How flippin cute is that??????????? He needs to lose the jeans though... I know I know baby steps baby steps. Great job "making" the kilt and explaining the history behind it. Beware you may have another kiltie on your hands soon.
