| | | New Box Pleated Kilt
I just got the fedex email notification this morning. My new box pleated kilt from Matt in the German National tartan is on its way and due to be delivered Tuesday. Now I just need to pay off the credit cards!!!

Arghhhhhhhhhh!!!
I've been very good since I ordered mine from Matt. The jonesing has been sort of held to a minimun. (and I ordered a kilt from Rocky in the interim) Now that you brought it up .....well.......I think I said Argh already. I envy you as the wool for mine is not even on the loom yet. Did I say Argh already??
I really DO expect a full review as soon as you get it so I can live vicariously (not even going to think about the spelling of that) through you until mine arrives.
Congrats! From what I understand you have a first class kilt on the way.
Did I say arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh already?

It's not going to make the jonesing any easier, but you won't believe what a great kilt Matt makes! Of all my kilts there is no doubt in my mind that the kilt I got from Matt fits the best. You're going to love it.

Now I just need to pay off the credit cards!!! | Box-Pleats Rule. I've had one for several years. It wasn't done by Matt,
but I'd like another someday, by Matt. Checking out his website, his
work is awesome.

My wife is 1/2 German, her mother is from Berlin (pronounced correctly as BearLeen!). If there is a German National tartan, I have the perfect reason to get another kilt!! Imagine, "But Honey, it's for you, for your heritage. How can I not get one before Xmas when we go to see your parents?? And box pleated as well! I must call Matt right away, you understand don't you? I am only doing it for you." ;) ;) ;)
Anyway, even if I don't get one this year, I would love to see a pic of that tartan. Congrats Davedove!

Congrats! A box pleat from Matt is on my wish list...if I can ever get past the great work Kathy Lare does for me...ahhhhh such decisions....
A moot point anyway until my plastic recharges a bit.
Hmmm....think I've got some German blood back a ways...some Loyalist ancestors moved to Canada after the Revolution and married up with some German Mercenary's kids that stayed in North America....
German National Tartan.....what a concept. Hope you share some pics.

My wife is a Robertson, but I'm mostly German, so I'm very interested.
I'm also a clergyman, so I have access to those as well, though I haven't been able to locate any good clergy tartan kilt pics.
If anyone can help, post away!
