    Well, I keep thinking of the Master Gardener certification, which is, if I remember correctly, through the county extention out here.

    Anyway, every time this comes up, it does make me nervous because there are no specific examples given between the differences in the "old traditional" kilts and the "tailored" kilts. Is Barb's book showing the tailored kilt construction, that's what we seem to know here, or is the book about the old traditional ways as learned at the Keith Kilt School? Exactly who is it making these tailored kilts that are so hated by the traditional kilt makers who have been trained in the old ways?

    It just puts a bit of doubt in my mind on what I have learned about kilts so far because I can't figure out what is being talked about with these differences.

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
