Thanks for the reassurance, Barb. That will give us all something to look forward to.
I can't say too many times: Thanks to you and Matt for what you do.

I, too, am looking forward to seeing how the real artists put together their box-pleated kilts.
And I must say that Kevlar might make a dandy kilt, but does it require special needles?

I don't believe you will need a special needle, but the fabric will be horribly expensive.

More expensive than Scottish wool?

I've never used the term jonesing before but now I will --- I'm jonesing for the box-pleat addendum to the Art of Kiltmaking!! (Did I use the term correctly?)

Errr, yah, I hear you. If you can find me another few hours in the day, it will be done. My best intentions have been there, but my time has not.

Needles shouldn't be a problem. Cutting the stuff, however, is a challenge. It laughs at normal scissors and knives. I was making some wicks for some fire toys out of it. In the end I had to resort to some EMT shears to trim it to length.
