Been a busy week, but yes, the 'problems' do not appear to be problems.
I received a call from Rocky at USA KILTS on Thursday I think it was and he not only answered my questions but gave me a free lesson in the history of kilt making and how different quirks appear and what to do about them.

revdpatience, it may be a bit of a wait for your kilt, it sounded like the COVID situation has been taking a toll on their production line. Though having said that I think my kilt was only a week later than the estimated schedule on their website (pre-covid) so I was very impressed. Having interacted both by email and phone with several people their I have no doubts however that you will receive a quality product as quickly as they can get it done.

Thanks again for the heads up on the sporran OC Richard, I will say however that the seller's emphatic "Not Rabbit Fur" is slightly in question at this point, but whatever it is, he did a wonderful job restoring it. I have received nothing but complements from those who have seen it.

Now I just have to pray that COVID doesn't derail the wedding...
