I've always tried helping Cynthia with her sewing projects, but it's never something I ever wanted to learn (outside of simple mending). With the kilt, it's just something that's very cool to maintain.

I'm lucky to have a skilled, self-taught seamstress to teach me how to do things I know I'd mess up if left to my own devices

It's become a favorite garment. I love being able to dress it up or down. With kilt nights and other people in the area with a shared interest, it's fun getting out. I also look forward to spring (a short thing in Texas), and hopefully getting in some hiking while kilted.
