    Hamish's 100th kilt

    Hi all,

    I brought Hamish's Centennial kilt with me to work on in Iceland, and I thought I'd send pictures periodically so that all y'all can see how it's coming. These two pics show me laying out the kilt in the Youth Hostel in Reykjavik while World Cup soccer was playing in the background:

    Unhappy

    What a strange world it is:

    a gorgous tartan
    a skilled kiltmaker
    an interesting work in progress

    and they are just staring at a screen!

    I just about did a back-flip out of my chair when I read the thread title. the more pics the better, if only because I want to see you at work, Barb!

    Yay... I love this thread. Somebody make it a sticky, please! This is kilt history in the making!
