    My first kilt

    Well, here is my "Wallace" lookalike kilt. Really, it is a blanket weave that I used for practice. A day without a Scotch is like a day without sunshine.



    I do hope someone can tell me how to show the photos. The links work though.

    That more of a look-a-like to a few other tartans than Wallace. Looks good, how about the pleats?

    Well, if it isn't a Wallace knock off, what do you suggest?
    Here is a pic of the pleats:

    Thanks Kid, it was a learning experience, to say the least. Barb's book on kilt making was invaluable!
