What to do with 5 yards?
I recently ordered my fourth (and probably final) "tank." As the tartan was a custom weave, I decided to invest in an additional 5 yards of fabric for accessories.
I thought of a plaid, but they aren't worth the hassle generally.
I thought of a couple of bias-cut waistcoats; one for kilt wear, and a longer one for wear with a suit. I haven't often seen that done, but I think it would present a dashing look.
As yet, I remain undecided. Suggestions are welcome!
So, what would you do with 5 yards of single width tartan which matches a good kilt?
