    Well done, indeed! That's a sharp-looking tartan.

    On the left side, you can move the strap toward the center of the underapron, assuming you have a traditional arrangement with button-hole. The edge of the underapron can "underlap" the buttonhole. On the right, just move the buckle away from the apron. It's an easy adjustment.

    Very nice! Isn't it a great feeling to wear something you made yourself? And you have the usual wonderful attitude of our "clan" here-if it isn't perfect, I can always make it better!

    Be well,

    re

    Yes now when I see good deals on material I know what to do with it. I can see making at least 1 new kilt a year or so. Just signed up for Portland Highland games today will be the largest one I've ever been to.

    Congratulations! You were smart to take your time and get help when you needed it, and it certainly paid off for you.

    ~Looking forward to seeing the next one ...

    Mom's are a great resource! My mom made me wild shirts while in high school. They were MBM shirts. Made By Mom. Now you know how to do it all. Great looking kilt.
