    something wicked this way comes...

    No, not another Cthulhu thread, or a Ray Bradbury one for that matter, more like wicked cool as our Bostonian members might say...

    Another masterpiece from Bonnie Heather Greene... Due Monday...

    Pleated I believe Barb called it to the alternate stripe... Looks more old fashoned to me that way...

    Oh, I really like the alternate stripe idea on this tartan. Beautiful work Bonnie!

    Re: something wicked this way comes...

    Beautiful tartan and beautiful workmanship! I really like the idea of tripple fringe. I'll try it out on the next kilt I make for myself. Hey, why not? The vest is really interesting on the bias, too!!! Great colors! But, I'm not sure if I'm reading the pleats right or not . . . is it stripes on every other pleat and a no-stripe in between? Confirmation or correction, please.

    Slàinte!,

    Very sharp and colorful! - especially the vest (love the buttons). The pleating is very handsome and contrasts nicely with the apron. I agree with Riverkilt - needs to be viewed "in vivo", so to speak. We're patiently waiting.
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    That's an awesome looking kilt there, cousin! Looking forward to more pics. (See if you could squeeze in one of the kilt straps...) Love the waistcoat as well!

    If this is your first Bonnie kilt, then you already know that Bonnie is tops when it comes to communicating............and her needlework is precise and neat.

    Soon, you might feel the urge for her to make another.
