hi folks,
I live part of the year in Fresno CA (while school is in session) and in Pasadena the rest of the time. I design theatre (scenery and lighting) and teach the same. I was first introduced to the idea of modern guys in kilts at a theatre convention where a group of theatre technicians all in kilts. Since then i wanted one, but could never afford one. Last year I got a new job, and for many reasons needed to learn to sew. My first patterning/sewing project was a kilt (and it doesn't look bad -- in fact considering I had no idea what I was doing it looks pretty darn good). I've made one more for myself since then, and I have fabric for a third. I have a pattern drafted for a fourth (the fabric I have won't go with the pattern I came up with). I'm debating if (when I have time in the next few weeks) I want to buy more fabric or make something out of the fabric I have.
I think I'm going to wear my kilt to work on haloween to introduce my co-workers to it.

Cheers
Chris
Anyone in the Fresno area (or pasadena in the summer)? i'd love to meet up!
