9th morning, sewing the first 6 pleats 2.5 hours TOTAL: 12 hours

Man o man am I out of practice hand-sewing pleats! Still and all, they're coming out pretty well so far. I've decided to hand-sew the pleats after all, since part of the whole point of doing this kilt was to practice for the Ancient MacNaughton tank that's coming up.

I think this is going to be New Years present!
