As for a kilt pin I suggest that you search the forum for "magnet" to get some ideas of how to affix a pin without piercing the fabric.
Best wishes!

Thanks for the encouragement! I'm going to futz with the under-apron pleat just a bit, but yeah, I'm a perfectionist. 
I'd considered doing a magnetic pin, but again will have to play with it at some point. I'm strongly considering the suggestion given below (making buttonholes and threading the pin through them).
And now, for my next trick, I've been gathering the materials for an ISporran over the last week or so. I think I'll see how much of it I can get done tonight.
