First Trad Kilt: an ongoing thread

[Barb T]

Hi guys

Had to trek down to Washington for a meeting yesterday. I haven't forgotten about my promise to post a pic! I'll get Dave to take a pic tonight and post it some time tomorrow.

OK - here goes. I have 6 pics of "the position". I'll put three in this message and three in the next, just in case there's a limit per message that I don't know about.

Cheers!

Here are the last three.

Thanks to everyone for their contributions to this thread. My admiration for your persistence in carrying on the tradition is ever-increasing.

Barb-thanks for the pics.I've been laying mine on a table and leaning over it.That looks a lot easier on the back.

Barb,

Thanks for the pics. That gives me a better idea of what it looks like. Great pics too, very well made.

It _is_ much easier on the back than bending over a table, but, more importantly, having the fabric clamped under your leg gives you something to pull against so that you can avoid wobbly pleats. Makes it much easier to achieve a smooth taper and straight stripes.

I'll tell Dave you like the photos! He's a commercial photographer, and he really knows what he's doing.
