Got an email last evening from Barb who reviewed the pictures again on my post and had spoken with Steve at Freedom kilts about his suggested method of fixing the skew. She is going to take the kilt back, rebaste it and try to get the skew out, or at least minimized. So back in the mails it goes to Barb for a while. My wife and I are not comfortable with super steaming it then pulling on it firmly enough to straighten the tartan for fear of ruining the kilt---if Barb does it she hopefully will have a better sense of how much force she can put on it, and if something pops who better to repair it than the maker herself.

Thanks again Barb for all the help, and to Steve as well.
