what do you mean by the "Baghdad kilt flop"?

you might have to do a thread search, but basically, I tried to have the Iraqi seamstres sew me a kilt for a burns dinner I wanted to have in Baghdad a couple of months ago. it was a disaster. Barb even sent me her book on how to sew a kilt, but of course it was in English, and even with the book, two translators and plenty of assurances of "yes yes mista, me know" the kilts came out looking like post shower throw towls. just...not a good moment. I did however, give my utilikilt to a taylor last year, and he made me a splendid UK knock off in leather. All my kilts are at home, and I wanted one made in Iraq, by an Iraqi. be careful what you ask for.
