Unfortunatly, as far as I can tell, it would be impossible for me to make a tartan kilt properly. I'm not even sure I am able to sew in the way required to make a kilt.

The exchange rate is good right now, so I understand.

If it does work out with the box pleat, it would be helping another person get a box pleat in this tartan. That also factors in my decision which is why I am focusing on it right now.
