May I tell you about one of my favorite kilts? It's a little shop of horrors.

So, do you have pictures? If you've already posted them, a link to that please? After all this I am dying to see it

I did post pics. The F-H.C.A.G. commented on the dog skeleton that featured prominently in the background.

Here you go.

.....and it will give a dyed-in-the-polyester traditionalist, the horrors! ...

Horror #1...the kilt is not wool



Horror #4 ...the kilt is hemmed

Horror #5...the hem is not blind-stitched

You know, I have this vision of an 18th century kilt maker being offered 60 inch wide jet-loom woven tartan. "You mean it's a third the price? Better woven? Only thing wrong with it is it needs a hem? Of course, we'll take it!"

The discovery of the sewing machine ("a tenth the time?") is left as an exercise for the reader.

Man, I got to stay focused.....

I know and like the Lindsay tartan very well as a good (kilted) buddy of mine is a Lindsay. Sounds like you got away with your horrors without repercussions! Good for you.
