    Thumbs up Military Box Pleat XMTS Tartan Kilt

    None other that X Marks the Scot's own way2fractious braved the rain and wind to come down south to have lunch with the Flame-Haired Celtic Amazon Goddess and I. He also brought my completed military box pleated 16 oz. X Marks the Scot tartan kilt! Those who have had the chance to see one of w2f's works in person know what incredible attention to detail he puts into them (albeit sometimes those details are a bit a mischievous )

    So here are a few pictures

    The kilt as presented to me with its own special garment bag



    The F-H.C.A.G. has decided that a few rhinestones will have to be added to the bag to give it that little extra special something



    The selvege was a little different than other XMTS tartan kilts I'd seen



    w2f obviously had way too much fun when he put in the basting stiches!



    way2fractious sees no reason that kilt liners need to be boring, a tell tale sign of his work is what lies beneath






    How XMTS can you get!





    After lunch sewing in the buckles (he wanted a final fitting so they would be perfectly placed)




    More to come
