6 - 8 weeks is not a long time in the kilt making business. It is about the norm, some do have to wait longer. To help the jones how about gettting the various accesories? Special kilt pin, sporran, hose and shirt spaced a week apart may help. Or else will drive you crazier. If it helps we all go through it. Another idea would be to cut the wait time for a new kilt by ordering an SWK.
