Kilts for the disabled?

Thanks Vince, worth checking

One of the guys who works for Caberdancer and Clan MacBubba is also wheelchair bound and he wears a kilt quite often.

cultural baggage

Blu....what are you saying!!! How can anyone not feel a sense of pride wearing tartan, whether they have celtic blood or no?

Baggage?? a burden? something we are glad to put down?
dear Oh dear Oh dear I need a drink

but what a wonderful story about a woman who wants to preserve her husbands dignity, if you see this lady, let her know that there are some on the other side of the globe who are proud of her!

Bubba -

Over at Tom's there was a wheelchair bound member who went by the name of Pleats. If he still posts over there, he might be worth contacting as I am sure that he could provide some good first-hand advice.

I was thinking of Pleats also Vince, I always thought it was fantastic that a guy with a disability was still able to wear a kilt with pride.

Graham, it's her father in law and she hasn't told anyone in the family about this yet. Heard from her on the sewing newsgroup this morning and she's almost finished with it. She expects to send it off this afternoon or tomorrow morning. She asked me to thank everyone for their suggestions and comments.

This has been rather inspiring, as I have a younger step-brother who is wheelchair-bound. In all honesty, he doesn't seem like the kilt-wearing type, but perhaps I still might be able to interest him in a kilt.

Philbo, a kilt does seem to me to be more practical under those circumstances.
