I wanted a utility kilt to work in....choked on the price..and with the simplicity of a box pleated kilt, I figured I could.just make the bloody things...a dozen or so for the price of new...I actually.landed here at Xmarks...and the X kilt instructions...then bought BarbT's book....melded some techniques...have made a few...the early ones were horrific...but I am getting better.
I just.made the first shirt I ever turned out...first garment I have made from a pattern too...it is not completely embarrassing...
