That is nice...It's also the first time I've seen the XMTS kilt all around...Does anyone sell them already made or do I have to buy the tartan material and find a kiltmaker to have it done and what is the average cost?
My apologies, but being a new kilt member is difficult for me to learn all the different weights, pleates, setts, fabrics, etc...I'm learning, but truthfully, I'm having a hard time with the lingo.

I know you said you were talking to Pete from Canadian Casual Kilts about the Maple Leaf, he made up my x-marks tartan kilt here is my review and pictures. I was talking to him on Saturday and he still has some of the x-marks tartan left.
You might want to talk to him about it.

That looks great. Hand sewn or machine sewn? I'm good with a sewing machine, just not sure how good I'd be at hand sewing.

I did the hem with a blind hem attachment to my machine, the rest is handsewn except the primary waistband sewing. I've made a lot of machine sewn kilts and this took longer but it is also an 8 yard tank. I wouldn't want to try to stuff that much material through my machine.
