Guess I should watch my language. Everyone is getting hung up on semantics on me.

I just meant that I want to make sure the girls don't end up looking like they're wearing men's kilts when they wear them to a birthday party or to school even. I'm thinking that sewing them at the waist without a rise and tailoring them either just above or just below rather than at the knee might do the trick. I might wrap the apron from right to left if I can figure that out as well.

I'm thinking of using poly/wool too. Will that function pretty much like pure wool.
