    I thought that was pretty ironic, too, that they ended up repeating a pattern on the pleats.

    After wearing it a bit last night, I've decided that I'll partially sew down the inner pleats tonight and then it's some belt loops and I'm done. Well, until I start on my brothers. But I've already thought of ways to improve my technique. And then it's onto a black one.

    I sewed my waistband down with the machine originally. I didn't like it so I redid it by hand. It goes quick once you get started.

    Definitely do the inner pleats. It takes so little time and I think does a lot for the Xkilt.

    Good job man!
