I am looking to modify a suit coat used for p@nts to kilt length. I have modified waist coats before, for reenacting but not a coat. Is it as easy as opening the bottom seam cutting the excess and redoing the seam? It seems to me that would be cheaper and easier then saving up for a coat made for kilts. I can find plenty of cheap starter material at the thrift store. Any help would be great thanks.
