    Two big problems

    The first problem is that camouflage material is directional and kilts are long peices of cloth. This results in the pattern being 90 degrees off. The first kilt that I made was in "6-Color Desert" so I had to do the front apron sideways for the pattern to come out correct. Which necessitated putting a hem on it which to look right had to go all the way arround.

    The second problem is the material itself mostly you have either a light canvas or a rip-stop poplin neither looks right, not even close to the way a kilt is supposed to hang and swing.

    May I suggest that if you want "the look" of commo you go with Black Watch, Nightstalker or a hunting tartan.
