County Antrim - Marton Mills 13oz wool

[BEEDEE]

Finally the jonesing is over and the new kilt arrived yesterday. Too late for the Scottish Heritage Society picnic last Saturday but got to wear it to a committee meeting last night and in to town today. Really like the colors and the pattern. Rocky did a great job pleating to sett.

So here's the photos:

Here's the front

and the back

Another back



And another thread asked about the kilting selvage on Marton Mills fabric. I cannot see any problem and this is what it looks like

I originally never considered the County Tartans but the more I see of them the more I'm considering one. Many of them really have some awesome colors. Congrats on a beautiful kilt!

I would like a County Mayo someday. That looks fantastic.

That looks great congratulations on the new kilt, I hope you will enjoy your USAKilt as much as I do.

Wow, that is nice.

Wow what a sharp looking kilt. I really like the way the kilt pin looks on it too.
Thanks for the picture of the selvedge, it has helped with the mill decision I am trying to make.
I hope you have many years of good health and good cheer in your new kilt!

I like that Tartan a lot, Brian. I think the selvedge issue has always been with the P/V and not the wool.
And I see I was wrong, you have the tan leathers from Cavscout.

That is a very nice tartan.

A great-looking kilt!
I am soooo envious - the Antrim is #1 on my "wish-for" list. My great grandfather was an artisan in county Antrim, and it's through him I trace my proud heritage.

So nice when Jonesing ends - and we get to see the pictures

Dude, that's just sharp looking. I know Rocky made his name with PV, but he also made my Leatherneck five yard worsted, and it's one of the most comfortable, best looking, and all around nicest kilts I own.
