    Photo Journal for Kilt Kamp 2016, Victoria, British Columbia

    Kilt Kamp 2016 starts Friday, August 5th, at 8 am. Kampers will be showing up starting at 12:30 tomorrow morning (I will drive to the airport to pick that Kamper up). We have books and handouts and fabric here at Freedom Kilts (where it is being hosted this year), ready for everyone. Tomorrow morning we start disassembling the shop and setting up tables and chairs. Baking has started and we have stocked up with Howe Sound Brewery Scotch Ale!

    Photos from the Kamp will be posted in this thread over the course of the next week. Here is the first, showing some of the handouts.



    Now, every Kamp has at least one "chuckle" moment, and this one has certainly started off with a bang. One of the eager Kampers showed up at the airport in the home city a day early. I don't think that Kamper will ever live it down! We refrain from identifying that Kamper so as not to compound his embarrassment.....!

    The first day of Kilt Kamp is winding down (although some die-hards may still be stitching away for a few more hours).

    MaryPenny and Steve taking measurements for a kilt.

    Barb and Brenda looking at pleating options for the Nicolson tartan.

    Part of Barb's "stash". Apparently she brought six kilts to work on while here.

    The tartan tights have not been awarded to anyone, although there have been some suggestions as worthy recipients! Here they are resting next to a circular sock knitting machine.

    Harlan and Chelsea pondering some stitching....
