    I will keep you posted about my efforts to "unskew" the tartan in a finished kilt. And I now know how to get the "skew" out before I start!

    And that is the most wonderful thing about this forum. We all learn from each other, and people are generous with their praise, their advice, and their help.

    Have you found this problem in any of the other F&K remnant Maple Leaf pieces you're working with? Or in all of them?

    And I'd love to hear the "get the skew out" secret. . . unless there's bloodletting and a secret handshake involved. . .

    You need a secret squirrel decoder ring....no, just kidding. I'm away from home right now, but I'll check the other pieces and see if they have issues and let you know. And I'll post my success (or lack thereof) as I go along.
