Have you succeeded in turning lead into gold?

I dance - you know, Scottish Country Dancing - four or five days each week, six if there is a social on a Saturday. As I let on to Tobus a few weeks ago, I do have more than 10 pairs of hose -...

Thank you Richard, an informative thread as usual, and one that I will Subscribe to, to read again.

Did you notice in the OP (Original Post), in the first photo of 2SCOTS the second last soldier...

What is the source of the light that illuminates the statue?

Where is the Octopus's Garden? It could only be in

Is the Garden open for visitors?

About 15 years ago, Arnotts had chilli-flavoured dark chocolate Tim Tams in their range for a year or two. Aye fond memory!

To my eye, the three sets of knees that we can see clearly, are perfectly exposed. The bottom of the kilts are at, or very nearly at, the top of the kneecaps; and the top of the hose are at a decent...

Hi Steve and Bobbi, thank you for the advance notice.

I will flag my interest now, and I hope that a few galaxies of stars align so that I can register and take my place next year.

BTW Steve,...

To my way of thinking, the centre stripe is the centre stripe; and the extra 1 inch is wrapped a little further around the right hip. Barb explains in her additional notes that the extra inch allows...

Bill,
What prompted me to contribute was a concern for the durability of your flag, but I think you may have commented on that. I do hope we get to see what results from your efforts.

Father Bill,
Have you enquired of any of the vexillology sites what their fabric options are? It seems that there is some of risk of wheel re-invention without input from that quarter.

Be ye not afraid, young man, there is a solution for the "500+" problem. The default setting on this site for the number of posts per page is 10, but I have set mine at 40, so my page count is only...

Riverkilt,
It's good to see you kilted, heading out into the great outdoors.
Cheers,

What joy for you OCR, well done!

Hi Bamamedic,

It looks like you have the necessary skills and experience to push the needle through your tartan material, no sweat. But I agree, it can be quite daunting to embark on such a...

What size are these hose?

With you on that one too, uncle remus, 'cept the first non-NY non-BC Kilt Kamp is gonna happen in New South Wales, Australia, 'kay!

Seriously, folks, I won't make it to Hamilton College this year;...

Do you absolutely need a closure on the left side? I have a box-pleated kilt made by Barb T that has no left-side closure, and only one, a strap and buckle, at the waist on the right. The underapron...

Steve, I know that a lot of kilts that you make are machine-stitched, but if I recall correctly, you also do some hand stitching, right? So, just to clarify for members, do you use the method...

Isn't it grand to wear a kilt at Christmas: I wore my Duke of Fife to midnight mass on Christmas Eve.

I will anticipate Jock Scott with this comment, that we need to see your knees. It could be...

I used the search function in the top right corner to refresh my memory of this term. It brought up quite a list of threads to check out.

Thank you Father Bill. Season's greetings to you, and all members of the forum, and your families.

If you can set up the same lighting conditions as when you took the photos in post #1, it would be interesting to see the 'before' and 'after' shots once your kilt is completely dry.

Good luck...
