    Thank you so much.

    So a bride and her bridesmaids would wear sashes, while the men wear kilts and flies? Which shoulder are they worn on?

    Are sashes made of the same 11 oz wool as the tartans or is it a lighter fabric?

    Does anyone know how to make them? Are they similar to making a scarf or a fly? Is there a pattern out there for them?

    How many yards of material are needed to make a sash for the average sized woman?

    That sash is gorgeous! I've got a sash on order for my friend, Lisa, and I'm hoping hers looks as beautiful as your wife's sash. Just lovely!

    Exquisite - a family treasure.

    "several generations of MacLean ladies"? Treat it like a museum piece. It is truly beautiful and, I suspect, irreplaceable.
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.
