X Marks Tartan Kilt

I have started my X Marks tartan kilt. I decided to pleat to the yellow stripe. I was thinking of doing the white stripe, but I liked the yellow better. Still a lot more work to do, but its a step in the right direction

These are my favorite threads in the DIY forum. I need to start contributing again. Looking good. You're well on your way.

...love the signature line, and the kilt looks to be off to a great start.

My wife suggested I change my signature line to "I don't always wear a kilt but when I do I go pro."

X Marks Tartan Update:

Sewed down all of the pleats. Time to shape the aprons tomorrow. Then the waistband. Feels good to get a large portion of the project done.

Aprons are complete. Stabalizer is in. Now to do my least favorite part, waistband, belt loops, and straps

So did you ever finish it?

That's what I'm wondering, too!

I do like the XMarks tartan, a lot. If I were ever in a position that I could have a custom kilt made, it would definitely be very high up on the list of considerations.
