"What I did on my staycation"

Finally, I've made progress, on a kilt that I (barely) started, last August, at "Kilt Kamp". I'm now basting the pleats - but have to return to work, on tuesday, so, maybe another month? ( MacDonald, Lord of the Isles, Hunting Modern tartan)

It is looking good. Looks like you've done a very nice job on the pleats. I'm looking forward to pictures of the finished kilt.

Nicely done, so far. Looking forward to the finished product.

I have always heard that haste makes waste, but, on the other hand . . . . .

Looks good, keep at it, sometimes life gets in the way.

Looks terrific! That's certainly one way to spend the May 24 long weekend.

The last photo with the pleats slightly open shows great promise it will look good "in action". As for plugging away, I was just commenting about another handwork project. One puts in an hour or so each evening with no end in sight. Suddenly, surprisingly, it is finished and one thinks "how did that happen?" Don't loose hope the end will finally come and it will be very worth all the time.
