The jacket appeared too long when I had it down to the fell.

I'll wear it and study more pics.

Thanks again!
I'd recommend you go to the widest part of your hips length wise... Unless you had the kilt made to your sizes, and are wearing it at the right height etc, the fell can be a bit misleading... The hips also helps you if you dont happen to be wearing a kilt when you're looking for jackets...

Otherwise a great job, I liked the sneaky way you came up with the fabric for the cuffs... I may have to see whether that will work for my current one...

The piping on the pocket flaps I left short of the edge when I did mine to allow for the buttons. I also didnt sew the lining until after I mounted the buttons in that area so I could mount them through the loose weave tweed.

All in all a great job though.
