The Stillwater isn't really worthwhile - I'll just buy another 1 (or 2) when I get there .. but my tank is not something I'm just going to toss. Can a kilt be reworked for an 8-10" loss?
According to my kilt maker Kathy Lare it is possible to adjust a larger kilt down the ammount of adjustment will determine the method though, from a simple buckle move to a full reworking of the kilt are all possible depending on what you want to spend.

:mrgreen: I'm envious of you to have such problems. Someday I'd love to have to worry about such problems.

Steve, are you sure of your left-right directions? My kilts all have the straps on the left side of the underapron and the strap hole is on the left. Have you been making kilted skirts lately?

Oops. You are absolutely correct. Hey I am usually not the one wearing the kilt when I make adjustments.
So, take everything I said and reverse it. Left is Right, up is down, in is out. Good is evil. Smart is stupid. And I am bass ackwards.

Congrats on the weight loss. When I lost weight, all of my bellydancing costumes were too big. I turned to the wonderful, almighty safetypin!
Safetypins, they were invented by bellydancers.

Hmmm.... you could pass the surplus on to fellow members of the X-Marks community, and buy brand-new ones! I am sure I could help out, and take one or two off your hands...
Seriously, I congratulate you on your loss... that doesn't sound right... Well done, anyhow!
