Yes... that's correct.
MacHummel... sorry to jump into your thread here. There was no malice intended. The ML makes a GREAT looking kilt (and curtains and slip cover for a chair in my living room) and since you've ordered a "special run" of it, you won't have to contend with the "splicing" thing until you get down to the last pieces (and hopefully then the math works out right so you don't have to splice there either!).
