Oh well!

Hopefully the fabric you bought will come in a bit heavier... I just didn't feel comfortable wearing such a light kilt for my first one...

Did you notice that the Stewert Black had a some metallic thread in it???

I bought some of their Black Watch because my wife promised to make me a sporran with it. I'm going back tonight to see if there's any more "sporran-worthy" material I "must" have. I'll post pictures when it's done, but it might be a while. She's got several sewing projects ahead of it and her machine won't be back from repairs until next week.
