altering a kilt: making the waist up to 10" smaller?
I'm wondering if any of our experienced kiltmakers could offer some advice, on what to do, to allow for possible future alterations to a kilt ( that I am now making)?
I'd like some ideas that would allow for (possible/hopeful? - if I can lose enough 'flab' ) future alterations, to make the waist ( and I assume the "hips"/butt would also "shrink", some too) up to 10" smaller?
Should I leave the last couple (or so) of pleats ( both sides, or just one side?), UNCUT, in the fell?
