    Santa Claus Kilt

    Well, christmas is over.
    One of my presents to myself was a kilt made from some worsted wool material I aquired. After reviewing all tartan pics, books by Bain, and research by fellow Xmarkers revealed that the tartan was an un-named “fashion” tartan that I named "Santa Claus Tartan".

    Well, the kilt was born on 12/25/2007. And true to form, the kilt was born to a very deserving fellow who promises to treat it with care and love.

    The kilt has been worn for three days (straight) now and has not wimpered at all (nor do I expect it to ever peep).





    Cheers

    Congratulations, and it's great that you are able to make so many kilts.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    The pleats are taking a beating. I have been doing a lot of sitting in a car, yesterday drop daughter off at the airport. Today, shop for my lovely wife, driving for hours looking for the right gift, and then taking my other daughter to the airport.

    Nice job, even if it is a bit squashed.
