It looks beautiful cousin!!, and as you said we seem to be on the same tartan path. I ordered my muted Clanranald two weeks, ago, and am getting Macdonald Lord of the Isles Ancient box pleated ordered this week.

Uh oh, I've been thinking about that one myself recently.

That's a great looking kilt! And your little one takes good pictures.

Congrats X. That's a very nice kilt you made there. The pleating to the sett looks about perfect and the tartan is beautiful. I'm sure you will cherish this kilt for a long time. and I think your son has a talent for photography.
Skål!

Pleating and the whole kilt looks great! You can be very proud.

Cheers!

As indicated.

Even the bulky flask is hardly noticeable beneath the apron. I've found that a full flask is quite uncomfortable in my sporran so this is a great place for it or my large palm phone if I've other things to stuff in my sporran. The passport fits perfectly too and a bit of Velcro ensures that it doesn't escape. I'll be looking to do this to as many of my future kilts as I can.

Speaking of future kilts, my first tank in MacDonald of the Isles Modern is waiting in the wings. I've a new script to study before Saturday so I will get on to sewing that one next week.
