Time to work on the apron...


Laying it out on the table...


I've marked out the apron with exacting measurements. Notice the "Art of Kilt Making" book, And some other tools I used.


And the basted apron. Because of where I centered the tartan and all, there was some extra excess on the aprons edge that I removed.

I also marked the other apron in a way so that I will have to remove the same amount of material on the other side. I've done this to keep everything symmetrical as I construct. I didn't want the center of the kilt to end up slightly off either.
