Well, it seems it is about to begin. Yesterday Barb T.'s book arrived in the mail, and I have been diligently reading on the history of plaid and now know all the mistakes I will one day make if I ever screw up the courage to attempt to make my own kilt. Here is my first of many stupid questions: are there challenges to trying to make a kilt as someone who approaches things from the "sinister" side of life? I note that Barb's instructions often say, things like sit with the fabric on your lap and catch the sewn pleats between your legs... or something like that. Can a lefty make a kilt... or all my pleats going to run in the opposite direction?
