Kilt w/Frugal Corner material

[HeathBar]

I'm waiting with bated breath for the Frugal Corner to get in some Clark/Clergy tartan so that I can make tartan stoles for the three pastors of my church.

What say...is this stuff nice enough for that purpose?

I'm sure it would be nice enough for that. But the 16 oz might be better. If anyone wants a sample, send me a PM. I've got a bit left over.

Today I cut the material, did the hem, marked it out, sew the two pieces together, and sewed up the apron edges. I used a sewing machine for all the sewing. This is going t be a casual kilt, so I'm not so worried about the stitches showing. But the thread I used hides real nice in this material. I am going to sew the pleats from the inside, so those will be hidden.

Next I'll mark out the pleats and sew them up.

The material seems to be holding up so far. So far so good.
