Details Of My New Isle of Skye Kilt
It was a nice sunny day. I found a white sheet to lay on the hammock. So I laid out my new Isle of Skye 16 oz Strome from Lochcarron Mills, hand sewn by Kathy Lare of Kathy's Kilts and took some pictures.
I figured they might somehow be helpful to the do-it-yourself crowd or to those guys who are thinking about getting their first hand sewn kilt from some kiltmaker but aren't sure what they get for the extra money.
Hopefully this shows a lot of the custom workmanship done to tailor a kilt to your body and some of the features not found in less expensive kilt options.
Since there were so many pics it'd be easier to just go to my gallery where they're posted. You can also enlarge the pics there for an even better view. Any wrinkles are from my laying the kilt out.

Here's one sample pic though, shows the double fringe on the outer apron.
