    Isle of Skye kilt

    A few pics of the Isle of Skye kilt that is going off UPS today to a patient (well, that's a bit of an exaggeration....) X-Marker. I asked to keep the kilt for a couple of days before I sent it to him so that I could take a few pictures for the 2nd edition of my book. It fit my future son-in-law perfectly! The piper is my daughter.

    Barb, that kilt is just mouth-watering! The photos are excellent too. I have now moved 'Isle of Skye' up to the top of my 'wants list'! Well done; it's beautiful.

    Wow, that kilt is simply stunning. The poor x-marker (sorry I forgot whose it is) must be in Jones hell! Well done Barb!

    !!! Barb that's a beautifully made kilt in an amazing tartan. A wonder you got it back from the son in law! Well done.
    Cheers,

    Another great looking kilt Barb! And the pictures are outstanding. Awesome clarity and the scenery is great as well.
