    I'm having no trouble seeing photos.
    I'm afraid to use velcro. Visions of falling kilts in public!

    If your kilt falls down folks will see your two "big macs" and you "quarter pounder".... Then they'll know you're a REAL McDonald.

    I used industrial strength velcro, stuff I used in a previous job for securing equipment. When I decided to use it my first real thought was that the kilt material would rip before the velcro released.

    2-inch-wide Velcro on Bob's casuals and the ones I sold as "FlamingoKilts," never heard of any separation anxiety.

    Thanks, I've never really trusted velcro, but if you two say this works I'll keep it in mind for future projects

    My current workload involves a lot of non-kilt related things, with the start of the school year being here if I found the time to start another project before the end of September I would be amazed. I know that my next project will most likely be to get the two kilts knocked out for my boys. I'm working on the sizing issues for them now, we're talking a kilt for a 3 year old and one for a soon to be 1 year old who will be walking soon. I think if I followed the 3 inch pleat structure they would get only about 4 or 5 pleats each, so have to reconsider all the measurements.
