I just had a thought about making a kilt
I see that buying tartan is quite expensive. So, I was thinking about buying a Stillwater kilt, taking it apart and using the material to make my own kilts (box pleats, stabilizer, interfacing, lining, removing the third strap, etc). This seems like it would be easy since SWK's don't have the pleat material cut out of the fell. This would yield box pleated kilts in actual tartan patterns, though in 11 ounce acrylic.
What say the rabble?
