My first (sort of) Mini-kilt
First mini-kilt that came out good anyway.
My sons girlfriend wanted a mini-kilt.
I made one last month for her out of some denim I had laying around.
It turned out it was stretch denim and turned out terrible.
I think we are going to burn it as a sacrifice to the Kilt Gods.
Anyway, this is the sweet girl that wrote the article in the local paper about me.
If you missed it, it is in this thread:

Anyway, I made her a camo mini-kilt today and it turned out great.
She is at a meeting right now, but when she gets home I will post some pictures of her wearing it.

and a close up of the material.
Notice the butterflies in the print.

Oh wow! That is a magnificent mini kilt! Mind if I ask for one later in the future?...

That looks great and the fabric is so appropriate for a young lady!
[I saw some fabric like that and was already at the cutting table when the clerk pointed out that the design was butterflies. I hadn't realized that--it just looked abstract to me. I'm glad that she hadn't put scissors to fabric yet!]
.
The obscure we see eventually. The completely obvious, it seems, takes longer.

And as promised, here are pictures of her wearing it.



She loves it and I am very happy with how it turned out.

Nice work, nice pics and nice young lady.
But how comes you always shoot pictures in the dark (night)?

Very fetching! Nice job, and the butterfly camo material is a great idea!
