    If you want to make a kilt from kilting tartan and you can order tartan wholesale, enough for an 8-yard trad kilt ranges from maybe $150 to about $225, depending on the mill you order from, what tartan you order, and how much you have to pay for shipping. If you order from a retail vendor, you'll pay more. But, it's still a lot less than ordering a custom made kilt.

    And, if I may make a shameless suggestion, the 3rd printing of The Art of Kiltmaking is available from Amazon (including Amazon UK), would give you all the instructions you need, and would add only about $20 to your project.
