Buying from USA Kilts
Yesterday, my husband and I were at the Fresno Scottish games. It was 100 degrees. I regretted not wearing my very cool USA Kilt, and my husband bemoaned not having any kilt that light weight. When we got home, I got out the measuring tape, and had him look at tartans. He selected a casual kilt in the Irish National tartan. (He loves borrowing my casual kilt, because the velcro makes it easy to get on when he wants to wear a kilt, but doesn't have lots of time), and I selected the Semi-Traditional in MacLeod Dress. I spent a bunch of time with the MacLeod's yesterday (one of my student's parents runs the MacLeod's presence at the highland games throughout California). I love their tartan, which I have no connection to. The family encouraged me to get the Loud MacLeod if I would wear it, so I did. Now I must see how calmly I can wait six to ten weeks for Rocky and team to work their magic.
I'll post pictures when everything arrives!
Cheers
Chris
I wish I had something funny or profound to put in a signature.

Ron,
Thank you for the pictures of the completed products. I'll try not to be too jealous that you have them already. I can wait patiently. At least, I think I can. At least, I'm supposed to. Have 6 to 10 weeks passed yet?
How about now?
Are we there yet?

Eight Weeks you say, well that means seven weeks and 2 days to go.

Good for you! I was at USA Kilt's shop last Saturday and got measured for the semi-traditional in Ancient Campbell. I bought matching flashes and paid a tad extra for quicker delivery. I can't wait to get it and post some pics. Basically though I want to wear it and get more into a kilted lifestyle.
