    Thank you for remembering that! Made the vest, too, just recently. Like having my own grown-up Ken doll . . .

    with certain vital differences!

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…

    She altered and customized the jacket, made the tartan vest from scratch and made the sporran from scratch. She is amazing and I am a very lucky man.

    Just for comparison, the outfit with fuzzy bunny vs. Goodwill mink. Yes, we stay at the same hotel a lot No, Bob isn't happier with the bunny -- just not ever really happy to pose for my camera!

    Re: New dress sporran for Bob

    She knows that I am never really happy in front of a camera because I look at the posts and don't like what I see. I could never do justice to all the great things she puts together for me. First two or three different kilts, then the PC conversion, then the vest and hose she knits and now the sporran. I am a very lucky man.

    Re: New dress sporran for Bob

    The whole thing just looks great. I am SO impressed.

    the jacket is fantastic.
    It looks absolutely phenomenal with the vest.
    ...which is just killer with the kilt...
    and the sporran is no "six footer"... I'd upgrade that to about a two-footer!!

    and YOU, m'lady sydnie7??

    well....nobody is looking at BOB in that picture with the two of you. You look fan-TAS-tic!

    Why, thank you, Alan!

    And I'll go with "two footer," any closer than that and we would be discussing it in the infamous "unwanted attention" thread anyway
