    New Taylor Ancient Kilt

    I have today collected my new Taylor Ancient Kilt in 16oz Lochcarron Strome. It is beautiful, and made by the hands of a genius. The lining speaks for itself, some pics of the kilt in progress. Will post some more probably at its first outing at the Rumney Folk Festival.

    Fabric arrived at kiltmakers

    I am well impressed with both your PH kilts, Simon. I hope they give you as much pleasure as my kilts have given me over the years.

    Congrats, Simon!
    Splendid tartan and a prominent and unique lining...
    Curious how it will look on you.
    Well done!

    Simon: Beautiful tartan! What a unique and personalized kilt. Love the buckles, and especially the liner. Congratulations. Can't wait to see it on you at Rumney. Good show!
