I bought my Pop's family tartan. He was my Stepfather who raised me. I wore his tartan for my wedding and he was able to marry us 15 years ago. He gone now. I will be gettin 3.5 meters of Leslie. 56" wide. Now I will need a kilt maker. Any help will be appreciated.. I know Matt can do the work and Barb. I just don't know prices or any of that.. thanks for your help.

Congratulations. There are several people on the forum who make kilts, so hope it works out. I do think the STM has the price of having a kilt made like that listed on the STM site.
Good luck.

It's wonderful that you bought a tartan that's so meaningful to you. If you need a good and experienced kiltmaker who's willing to make the kilt for you at a very reasonable cost, I'd gladly be at your service. I apprenticed with Ann Stewart and have been making kilts for 3 years, hand-stitching about 125 kilts so far. I think you'll find that my work is careful and beautiful.
