POLL: who on the board has made, intends to make, or will never make....a kilt?

[Alan H]

I've made a mess of kilts. Here they are, in order....

1 carhardt canvas knife pleat
1 7-yard more-or-less traditional knife pleat in MacNicol modern, heavy wool
1 lightweight wool gray Fraser and Kirkbright 6-yard knife pleat (first kilt pleated to the sett)
4 X-Kilt prototypes
1 8-yard traditional knife-pleat in Dutch MacKay
1 6-yard knife pleat (to "no stripe") X-Marks tartan
1 4-yard box pleat in 16 oz California Modern tartan
1 casual 3.5 yard knife pleat digicamo "quick-and-dirty"
1 X-Kilt in Predator camouflage

Oh and 4 tartan, knife-pleated mini-skirts

TOTAL: 12 kilts and 4 skirts

COMING: the way2fractious Tribute Kilt; 5-yard knife pleat knockaround in lightweight digicamo (cut it out this morning)
An X-Kilt for *someone* it's a surprise, sort of
an 8-yard Gray Stewart traditional knife-pleat kilt for moi
a 4-yard Hall tartan box-pleat, also for moi

And I'll probably make a skirt out of the 6 yards of 20-inch wide Lindsay tartan that's sitting in my study, sooner or later.

At that point I figure I'll be done with this... 16 kilts and 5-6 skirts

Thinking about it. I'll definitely make at least one, but I have a lot of research to do because a kilt is a work of art. I'll get there

[GMan]

Just need the time!

Made a bunch of kilts and I love it...however, making pleated mini skirts sounds like a lot more fun

The best part is when the lasses put them on! (See the F-H.C.A.G and her skirt. Now, THAT was fun!)

I've only made one kilt
I hand sewed an eight yard kingussie style kilt that I wear to reenactments
I used some med. weight wool in small sett Black Stewart
I really like the kingussie style (center box pleat and knife pleated to front on both side) don.t know why its not seen more often
