    Good on you for making this attempt, I hope it works well for you. I am looking forward to your photographic record of progress, out of curiosity about the material and the process, not because I would build anything with similar thermal capacity for eastern Australia.
    All the best,

    Yeah, I'll be curious what you think when you're done.

    Done sewing and shaping all of the pleats. Next is shaping the aprons and attaching the webbing and waistband. Should be able to finish it up this week. I will post some pictures soon
    I don't always wear a kilt, but when I do, I've made it myself.

    Just one point, please don't go regimental when it's windy outside.
    Remember it's windproof from both sides

    Good luck

    Finished up the Waistband, almost done with the straps and I will get pictures up tonight probably. Interesting fabric to work with to say the least.
