Talking Kilt newbie here, also kilt maker newbie

Hi,

I'd like to introduce myself. I am an engineer and I am attracted to kilts. I have scottish blood and a scottish last name with other nationalities as we have in the US. The engineer in me attracts me to the method of manufacturing of a kilt. I have two kilts now, first one bought this year and the second one I made, thanks to Barb T's kilt making book.

I plan on attending the KC Scottish games, again for the second time. This year I will wear a kilt.

Cheers everyone!

Wallace C.

Welcome from southern Ontario, Canada.
We have another engineer/kilt maker on board with us and is due to soon release his own book. In the mean time check out his work at Freedom Kilts, link above.
