Hi Tess, thanks for the tips! I had seen the reference to bringing a footstool, but I assumed because I am VERY tall, I wouldn't need one. Maybe I was wrong. A fanny cushion is definitely something I should probably bring.

Elsie has not let me know yet what she will provide. She may be waiting to receive my registration, which may be delayed in the New Year's holiday mail. I have a variety of threads I am planning to bring, including heavyweights, basting thread, regular weight. I ordered a piece of Taylor's Pride hair canvas last night.

My eyes are older than yours and I wear trifocals, so my eyesight is always an issue. I'll check with my optometrist to see what she recommends for kilt camp. I hate to sound like a worry wart here, but I am just trying to avoid problems so I can have a lot more fun at camp. This is a big deal for me. After years and years of making sure my two Autistic kids have had every service, therapy and camp possible, this is the first time I have done something like this just for me. The expense is a tough nut, but I am sure it will be worth it, especially if I am successful at making a kilt for Mark. I have a bottle of Champagne I plan to bring with me!
