Kilt w/Frugal Corner material

**Kilted-Marine** · 18th July 07, 01:06 PM

My last name- Wright (Sept of MacIntyre)- is from my Mother (my mother and father never married)
My Fathers last name is Dickson (Sept of Keith)
I grew up in Maine on the Canandian Border- New Brunswick, not far from MacAdam and St Stephens NB
Today most of my Family lives in Canada - My dad lives up on the Mira River in Cape Breton
My 1st cousins all live in either Fredricton NB or Shilo Manitoba (Brandon)

I have had many a Keith's Ale

We used to go over to macAdam to play hockey and would catch the passenger train back to my home town of Vanceboro Maine ($1 for the ride)

BUT-just so you know-when we take over-we do not want Quebec

So how much of the Keith's will you give us if we agree to take Quebec?

Bonjour!

We don't want Québec?! Pourquoi? That's not very nice to say. I'm sure there are some members here from Québec.

Let me rephrase I would not cry if they left, and I have never seen a member from Québec.

Sylvain is from Montréal
Parpin is from Longueuil

I'm sure there's probably more.

For all intents and purposes, the kilt is finished. I'm satisfide wth it. Sure its not perfect, but, its for me and it was a practice run. So I can live with the imperfections.

The material itself was nice to work with. I think it will hold a pleat good enough. The only problem I had was the cut edges unraveling. With wool, after the first couple of threads were removed, there wasn't much of a problem. It seemed to go a little further with this material.

This is lighter weight material, but I think it will work out OK. I turned a box fan, and 2 pedistal fans up to high to see what would happen. The worst was the right hand apron corner flipped up to the sorran. Not so bad. Now a strong gust of wind might yield different results.

If you are looking for some inexpensive material to work with, I say give it a go.

I'll get some pics up in that forum when I get a chance. Maybe this weekend.
