Well, I received the fabric today and, using some other Black Watch fabric I had, started work on the bairn's kilt first.

First, I posed with the fabric. Merry Christmas!



Then I started marking the fabric for the toddler kilt.




Pip helped...




Now the fabric is all marked and I have just started the basting stitches.

So far it's been difficult to figure some of the things out, but I am gradually re-reading things and working it out bit by bit.

We'll see how it all goes.
