Inexpensive cloth

I usually check the local Hancock Fabrics store. Now and then they have some decent fabric for kilts at cheap prices, 3 to 5 dollars a yard, on clearance.

Got some camo. fabric at handcocks for like $1.50 yard that I'm going to try my hand at making a kilt. (Don't tell the tartan police though)

A while back I got 9 yards of black, grey and white plaid wool fabric, a bit over 13 oz, for $3 a yard at Hancock. I bought all 9 1/2 yards they had.

Definately make a trial kilt first. I know I've made a couple non tartened kilts first before trying the real thing, and glad I did. (Still haven't got around to making my own tartened kilt yet, but the practise is out of the way.
