I do like the idea of Steves kilts with the pockets, those are pretty slick. One piece of the fabric is 60 inches wide, the other is 58. The length of my kilts will be 23 and a half I believe, Times that by 2 pieces that makes 47 inches, so there should be some trim, right? am I wrong? which would mean that I would in theory have I should have a piece of each fabric 4 yards by I dont know, 6 inches or so right? that leaves at least 5 inches of waste on the piece to line up the tartan or what ever. I dont know Ive never made a kilt. I would think that would be enough for a sash.
I was thinking maybe if possible having an tank made from one piece and 2 box pleats out of the other. will that work?
