I probably should note for folks new to kilting, or not familiar with some of our western U.S. resources that Kathy is pretty much an icon for me.

I don't know enough about kiltmaking to say she's any more or less talented than the many other hand sewn kiltmakers around the world. She was trained at the Keith Kilt School in Scotland and has hand sewn over 1,000 kilts to date...eight of them babies are hanging in my closet.

I've noticed a lot of kiltmakers lead pretty low key lives, maybe because they're home crafting kilts. But here's a chance to meet Kathy while she's not in a work mode. When I've been to Highland Games where she's a vendor I pretty much have to stand in line just to say hello and when its my turn she'll probably automatically start measureing me.

But here's a chance to drop by the TECA tent at Stone Mountain and introduce yourself to this gracious quiet kiltmaker while she's not caught up in her work.
