This is my first self made kilt. I like the looks of corduroy but found that it required splicing two pieces to have suffiicient material for the kilt. I spent about 30+ hours pondering, calculating pleats and wondering how to do this. Then I finally started and 8 hours later, through two days, it was done. I used three different kilt making instructions, blending them but my next will be with much larger 1st and last pleats.
Have several pics but now find I cannot post them. Well , anyway, I have my first DIY kilt and my wife says it looks very nice.
