    I am pretty sure his other shop is not a kilt shop. Graeme had quite a few other things in the shop, including a good many sporrans at reasonable prices. I not only bought my first 8 yard kilt from him, I bought my first sporran from him too. He is a man who knows a lot about kilts. I really wish him the best in his future endeavors.

    While it is unfortunate that a maker of quality kilts is going out of business, such is the nature of the free enterprise system. If some one sells something that is marketable, he will make money. If he doesn't, he won't, and others will.

    I think it was Oleg Cassini, Jackie Kennedy's couturier, who said something like if you make your living from one person, you ride home on the street car with many people. If you make your living from many people, you ride home in a limousine by yourself.
