X-Kilt: Sew Your Own, manual available for download

**KiltedTurtle** · 7th September 06, 05:50 AM

Began working on my X Kilt last weekend and I'm almost done. (The long weekend for labor day helped move me along) . I've just finished sewing down the pleats above the fell and gave it a quick test fit. My wife was genuinely surprised at how well its coming out. Can't wait to finish it, I'll try to post some pictures when I get done.

I finally got pics of my X-Kilt. I added a waistband and snaps (like UK and AK). I've had several compliments already. It's a light cotton/poly, perfect for summer hiking or working in the garden. (Thanks again Alan for the directions.)

It's hard to smile when you are blinded by sunlight.

The pleats - after wearing it several times - could use a pressing.

FANTASTIC! The snaps look good, I like 'em. Great job all around, Mowgli. Wear it with pride because YOU made it!
