As for stream iron's work being that of a man. I'm not sure if I trust him near an iron. Especially my nice "press through anything" iron I have for my sewing. I might try the Joanns' thing, or I might take a chance on one of my other fabric sites. Doesn't hurt to write a review on it.
I think I may save those links for a later kilt. I'm not comfortable using that expensive of fabric just yet on a kilt. I've worked with 25 buck a yard fabric ( did that last week) but it was on a pattern I had made 4-5 times. I want another 2-3 under my belt before I try something that nice.
Alan, if someone paid me what my labor was worth they couldnt' afford anything I make.
