    African Kilt - Traditional African cloth made into a Scottish Kilt!

    Hi folks,

    Thought I would share this as I had never seen anything like it. Recently a customer came into the shop who had been around Africa and brought back some traditional African cloth. He asked us to make it into a Kilt for him, and we did!

    It turned out really well. The light-weight cotton wasn't ideal for making a Kilt - the pleats might not keep their shape as well as heavyweight wool - but we were happy with the result and the customer was delighted!
