    I just tried to follow Barb's instructions. To be honest, I was quite amazed how it all just came together. I didn't expect it to. A very pleasing experience.

    Loooks great Andy! And the only one who will notice the mistakes on a normal inspection is you! Just like when you hang your own wallpaper, you know where all the mistakes are, but nobody else sees them unless you point them out.

    Looks Awsome! I hope that when I finally get the guts to try to make one myself someday, that it turns out even HALF as good as yours did!

    Excellent work! I can't imagine how good it feels to wear a kilt you made yourself!

    Phenomenal! I've made a few modern style kilts with a machine, so I know the amount of work in a kilt, but that is outstanding. You should be proud of what you've done.

    Wow!
    Looks excellent and is making me want to turn my wool yardage into a kilt now! (still have 9 yards of locally woven Black watch)

    You'll want to make more and more of them!

    keep up the good work
