It looks a splendid job! I'm looking forward to making my next kilt. I have the tartan for Christmas. Well done!

Hey, you did a great job there. As we discussed when you were in Conyers, it's all about following directions, taking your time, an' a' that an' a' that.

I keep looking closer and closer trying to find something "wrong," but I can't.
