And now the wait.

[HippieLee]

Just ordered 8 yards of handmade kilt in Buchanan modern from Alexis Malcolm...looks like I have about 3 months to make a decent sporran....BTW, I just spilled a whole bottle of leather dye in the living room....never look at your stuff outside of your work area. :/ lol


I've been waiting most of my adult life for a real kilt - so why does 3 months seem so loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnn nnnnnnnngggggggg?!?!?!?!?!?

Congrats on your new kilt order !

Spilling a whole bottle of leather dye in the living room is a bummer . However , on the bright side , you could now declare the living room as your work area .

Cheers , Mike

I like it. I like it a lot. More air conditioning and TV to distract me from waiting for my kilt to arrive.

Congratulations on the new kilt!!! I know I'll be waiting about 6 months before I can even order mine.

Thank you very kindly...Speaking with Ms. Malcolm this morning she says things are moving along nicely for her and that I can reasonably expect my kilt to be done a few weeks earlier than we had talked about before.

I really do understand the waiting to order - like I said, I have been thinking about doing it for a long time but finally got to a position where I could pursue the dream tenaciously and I just hunkered down and got my stuff together and pulled the trigger.

It's a wonderful relief to go from "Some day..." to "I know within a couple days when it will arrive!" Here's to hoping your wait is a painless as possible! int:

That's great news Lee! Mine took seven months to arrive but it was worth the wait since it's a garment that will last my life time and generations after.

Now... What's the new color of your living room rug and will you have to get new drapes to match?
