Thank you Barb for that very informative lesson. Now for those of us for whom a needle and thread is akin to major surgery...where would folks like us get their kilts pressed? Are there such people in the world who specialize in this? I note that the Wizard in Victoria presses kilts for the military. Would there be a shop in every town that has a kilted regiment who does this? What about folks who don't live in such centres?
