First "traditional" kilt project

Hope all goes well.

That is what I have done with a similar large sett - tweek the apron so it looks as even as possible then make a nice lot of pleats so they look ample and swish nicely, and the rest of the fabric for the under apron.

Do make good sized under apron pleats each side so the apron isn't held up in situations where you'd prefer it to hang down, and you should be good to go.

If you find that, with the sett being so ginormous, laying out the pleats exactly the same size means that you get a bitty effect then making the pleats slightly irregular to improve the look is a good idea. I have done that to get stripes onto the middle of pleats where they were not placed evenly on the fabric, and it really isn't at all obvious unless you get a ruler and slide it into the pleats.
