    First Kilt - Finished Update

    Hey All,

    I started my kilt in the following thread:

    http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/s...57#post1049557

    However, it is closed. It has been a while. I finished it in the summer. Long story short I'm finally getting around to putting up some anonymous, for the time being, shots of the finished work.

    Insert short version of the long story. I started the kilt about 11 months ago. Got the pleats finished. Went away for some good ol' military training. Bought my first house with my wife. Moved. Had our firstborn son. Finished off the kilt. Debuted it at the Glengarry Games.

    Just as a refresher, the pleats while it was still a work in progress.



    Apron shot, with a Buzz Kidder Sporran I purchased used from xmarks member Zardoz.



    Games action - sitting on a blanket. Haha.



    Shot of the finished pleats - sorry for the low light/quality image.

    Great job. Love it. Is that Ramsay Blue tartan? That is my next project, a Ramsay Blue Modern.

    Thanks!

    Yes it is the Ramsay Blue. I love the pin-strip look it gives the pleats.
