Nicely done. These kinds of kilts are great for everyday wear where one would dread subjecting an expensive wool kilt to the abuse (the wool could take it - just not the pocketbook!)
As a minor clarification, however, the Kinguisse style has the center back box pleat on "top" and all the knife pleat edges, left and right, point toward the front. One picture posted a long while back shows an historical example of such pleats.
The inverted or reversed Kinguisse style has the center back box pleat "inside" and all the knife pleat edges, left and right, point toward the back. This is the pleating style Utilikilts uses.
Both Kinguisse styles and the standard box pleat style all result in a symmetrical kilt; the knife pleat and military box pleat styles result in an asymmetrical kilt.
