    Resizing an exhire kilt...

    I have been reducing my natural waist over the past 2 years... so instead of purchasing new kilts, I decided to develope the skills to rework what I have in preparation for making a complete kilt from new fabric. I completely disassembled this Scottish National kilt and reducing the yardage to 6 yards... turning the cloth inside out, as the outside is a bit worn in a couple places. Also decided to pleat the kilt to the red stripe. Will be putting in a proper stabilizer, canvas, etc...
    I broke my hip in a fall several weeks ago and finally have gotten to the point where I can get things accomplished again...20250908_151244.jpg
