If you are going for a contempory kilt, then Alan H's excellent free tutorial on how to make an X kilt is your salvation. If you use the search function on this site and search for xkilt I am sure you could find it.

The OP did say that he didn't have a sewing machine, and in truth while a traditional kilt is usually sewn by hand, a modern style, such as the X kilt, isn't, and really couldn't be sewn very well without a machine, especially if working on canvas or denim.
