There are a few glitches but nothing major. Colors are bright and consistent. Bottom edge is plain woven and not frayed.
Measuring along the bottom of the kilt from apron corner to apron corner I get a measurement of 7.25 yards.
What is the surface of the fabric like? Is it relatively smooth? My 2005 SW Nightstalker has a fuzzy surface that I don't care for much, now that I have my Weatherd Lamont.
