I attached the top band - by happy coincidence, the sett lines up on both the apron and underapron! The underapron wound up with a different center stripe because of the ABAC tartan pattern and 12" repeat; to match the same stripe would have meant either a very skimpy or very huge deep pleat.
And my studio now smells of wet wool; the kilt is pressed and almost ready for the home stretch, which I hope to finish before the long weekend is out.

(Pardon the weird saturation/contrast; I used a panorama stitcher to get a full end-to-end shot and unfortunately it doesn't lock the exposure for each component shot. That's also why you can see some faintly diverging/ghosted lines in the tartan in a few places.)
