That's a total of 293 meters of fabric out there.
WHOAH......293 meters is *very* roughly 300 yards, double width. That's 600 yards of single width. If half of the kilts made are 4-yards and half are 8 yarders (gross over-simplification but this is just rough, here) then that means there's enough for 200 X-Marks kilts.
TWO HUNDRED X-MARKS Tartan Kilts.
Whoah. Whoo-o-o-o-a-a-a-ah.
