    A couple of kilts with "flash"!

    I've just finished two kilts where the customers wanted a little flash inside the pleats. Not all tartans lend themselves well to this kind of pleating, but these are quite striking!

    There is something about weathered tartans. This just adds something special.

    Wonderful work as always Barb, I guess it's no surprise that the kilts you have made for me are the favourites in my collection.
