    Looking great Terry!
    The kilt looks fantastic. When you have a chance, try to get a shot of the pleats open for the blue 'reveal'.
    BTW: It's good to finally see #6 in action.

    You bet Scott (& thanks)!

    I figured when my wife is off on Wednesday I can get some outdoor action pics walking the dog (including the pleat reveal ). I'm sure the garter ties will have arrived by then

    The kilt looks terrific! Now I think I'll follow up on my "jones" for a MacDonald of Glenaladale ... it's very close to your MacDonell of Keppoch .

    Ah, another has risen to the fly!



    Seriously though, I'm glad that my MacDonell of Keppoch has inspired you to follow up on your own "jones"

    The MacDonald of Glenaladale is a very handsome tartan, as seen in these samples by Lochcarron here (I especially like the version in ancient colours). I can't wait to see it in kilt form (have you decided upon what form it will take? 8 yard tank? 4 yard box pleat? etc? & kilt maker?).

    Indeed! & thanks!

    ...but I think one of his elves is running around wearing my new (traditional) garter ties that I'm still waiting for!

    Terry, that's a great looking kilt!

    (And, what can I say about the STM brochure? Why, it features the MacIntyre tartan, no less.)

    Bold,
    That is an amazing tartan and kilt! Congrats. Yes, you have gotten my own jones up for a new kilt. On a side note what is your tattoo on your arm? Again congrats on the new kilt.
