Jonesing - Good News - Bad News
Got an update on my Dutch Friendship Tartan kilt. I'm next in line! That's the good news.
Bad news is I'm not the only person who craves quality work from this full time kiltmaker. The order in front of me is....25 kilts for the Denver District Pipe Band!
So, I wait patiently...my time will come. Will be my 12th hand sewn from her. Have waited behind pipe band orders before, can do it again....no big deal....I can handle this....AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! melt down......

Yup, Kathy. Semi-good news is she's already been working on the order and she is a full time kiltmaker...I'm guessing a few more weeks.

A few more trips down the river and it'll be there before you know it. Just try not to think about it too much.
