How did you decide to pleat the US Bicent Tartan? Any pics of the different ways he showed you?

After consulting with Rocky, I decided to pleat it to the white stripe on the blue stripe. It does make the red look a little purple, but pleating it to any part of the red was just too red. I could have pleated it to the set, but I think I have more option to wear it when it was pleated to blue.

Very nice tartan indeed. Matches perfect.

Making one was a lot of fun, but it was a modern kilt this is a tartan kilt, it is just different. This being a 5 yard wool kilt will be much warmer than my four yard cotton kilt as well, better for hockey games.

I hope you guys made it to Ikea OK.

As someone that played hockey for years and years I agree with Rocky. Tucked in jersey don't look right except on one person and that was an exception and not a full tuck. Great looking tartan though, it matches the jersey very well.
