Lovely,

Is it my eyes, or the camera...sorta kinda looks like the kilt is hemmed rather than having a selvedge edge...? Curious.

very nice Kilt, might I suggest raising the sporran a little, it will remove the "pouch" made by the chain.

Nope Ron, trust me as I held the kilt ransom for a couple days it is a selvedge edge, Barb recently had a thread on this very kilt and how she dealt with the selvedge.

In case you're interested, here's the post on the selvedge for this piece of tartan.

Thanks, I remember the thread. Didn't make the connection. Is this a great board for learning or what?
