    X-Kilt, in MacSpey Hunting Ancient...

    I finally got around to finishing this X-Kilt last week. It's my fourth such effort, and the best yet. As you can see in the piccy, I have discovered the ancient Chinese secret of side slash pocket construction. There's also an under-apron pocket, a la Pittsburgh.

    Next fall whilst stalking the mighty elk, I shall be invisible... at least from waist to knees.




    Thanks, Alan H!

    Wow... you've been busy!

    Looks pretty good from my chair.

    Now all you need is an X-jacket to go with it!

    I have never been good with needle & thread. I admire those that are. Have you made others for yourself?

    Good job,

    I remain amazed at those with the talent to sew up a kilt, for themselves, or for the masses....

    Maybe because it takes me ten minutes to thread a needle and if I try to weild it there's soon blood flowing.

    Thats a fabulous kilt, and especially so if you made it. And I adore pockets in the kilt.

    That's a really nice job. I must learn how to use our sewing machine.
