    Alan-

    URL changed due to hot linkers (again ). That link is not the latest revision for some reason so I'll have to repost the correct link tonight.

    <edit>

    Here it the correct URL: http://www.kellanmeigh.com/x_kilt/Xkilt.pdf

    Very easy to understand. Joined this website and 3 days later I'm wanting to sew a kilt?? Who knew?

    And I get that the kilt is for men... but making myself clothes out of our family tartan to match is ok, right?? ;)

    Yes, of course. You can make things out of your husband's tartan, your own family tartan, or any other tartan that's not restricted. Look at the "Pixar in Loud MacLeod" thread for some ideas.
    You can also make yourself a kilted skirt. They're generally longer than men's kilts, but they don't have to be.
    My wife wears an arisaidh, which is just a big piece of double-width tartan, belted around the waist, with the ends free to tie over the shoulder, wear as a hood, tie at the waist to stay out of the way, etc.

    When given a choice, most people will choose.

    I actually wrote an X-Skirt manual, once, but it kind of died on the vine for lack of interest. This is in comparison to the X-Kilt which is a stupid-silly success story.

    But the answer is yes.

    New Link for downloading the X-Kilt manual as of 2/14/2011:

    http://cmgm.stanford.edu/~ahebert/Xk...t2ndedRevK.pdf

    This is the second edition, which includes Tartan Hikers construction notes and sydnie's Reverse Kinguisse X-Kilt instructions, as well as a revised description of the part in the first edition that confused more people than all the rest of the manual put-together....the over-apron strip..
