    You have a more stout heart than mine, to even consider touching that tartan yourself... I would think that anyone who hasn't made at least a few dozen kilts before would be rather nervous.

    That said, Matt's always as safe a bet as you could find. And he has the added advantage of having worked with this tartan more than anyone else, at this point at least.

    ...speaking of stout hearts, you know Matt must have one, as I hear he's still rather sane, in spite of his over-exposure to the Tartan That Should Not Be. :cthulhusmiley:

    Matt is close to starting on a fourth. Hey, that must be for me!!



    The kilts I have seen so far are awesome and I can't wait to get one of my own. The jonesin' is definitely starting.

    Hmmmm. Big changes have been happening in my life recently. I should have known this was coming! What have I done? I must be mad!!

    I thought such was the case... But pictures of said kilts are not forthcoming... these people need to get with the program, as their kiltmaker is clearly on the ball.

    Well at THIS point you're just going to have to wait until the rest of my goodies get here, then I'll take pix all at once.

    ps. it's not the waiting that's making you crazy.

    Hehehe... Your ears must have been burning, my friend. But good God, man- What all have you gotten into?

    Seriously though, I'm sure you're right. I've had my Abomination the longest, and I've been wearing it alot... wore it this morning, in fact.


    So you fellows can use me rather like a pigeon in a coal mine- when I go out to lunch, you'll know something's coming your way soon.

    Another one out the door today. This one a six yard knife pleated kilt, pleated to the purple line.

    Wonderful.

    I like the narrow pleats. One reason I went with the green virtical was I was worried the triple plurple might be too busy. This is a great way to have it without overwelming.

    *drool*

    Maddeningly beautiful, I'm really looking forward to it.
