Long before I found this site, I wanted to learn how to make kilts and searched the web for instructions and patterns. That's how I found Barbs book. In the book is a picture of a guy in the most beautiful kilt I had ever seen. I assumed that Elsie Stuehmeyer had made the kilt and tried unsuccessfully to find her to see if she did any kilt making courses near or in Tennessee.

Then I found xmarks, and having seen some of Barbs kilts I realize she could have made that kilt in the book. Her kilts are beautiful, perfect, magnificent, I find it impossible not to want one.
