    Re: Kilt Pins on Canvas Kilts?

    What about putting a couple grommets in the apron? That would seem to fit with the contemporary aesthetic and would look interesting even without the pin...

    I'll have to look through my grommets to see if any are big enough to accept the blanket pin. I wouldn't put them directly through the apron, I'm trying to avoid putting holes in the apron; rather, I would put them through the bias tape, then sew the tape to the apron at each end. Interesting idea, though.

    My zebra pin has a horizontal pin, and I wear it at a diagonal angle. I don't think grommets would work for that too well.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
