Allmost like looking forward to Christmas in july isn'it.

Well, it's definitely Christmas in August!!

The only downside so far is that USPS doesn't update it's tracking information as diligently or regularly as private carriers. Or so it seems to me. I must've gone to check the tracking information 20 times so far today, and it hasn't changed

Just a message stating that they have been notified by the shipper(USA Kilts) to expect the package for pick-up.

I canna stand it!! ::nailbite::

Don't do like I do... Don't gain or lose weight before your kilt arrives.

Ok, is it kind of sick that I've already signed up for the Photobucket account, and gotten it organized, just so I can post kilt pictures???

Once you get your kilt all of us Kilted Carolinians will HAVE To have a kilt night. It's been too long since the last one. Plus, I have to show off my weathered McKenzie that is on it's way from Jerry as we speak.

To answer Casey's last question first. Nope, you are perfectly normal! It is a wonderful milestone, and only happens once in a lifetime. (There can be no 'second first time').

As for the kilt night, Maybe we can all meet at the Waxhaw games? Whaddayasay?

I know it seems like it's taking forever, but it WILL get there! And it will be well worth the wait! Rocky and Kelly do an awesome job on kilts and you will NOT be disappointed! Plus, they're just all-around awesome people to work with! I ordered my semi-trad from them with rush fee (which should've gotten my kilt here in two weeks.) Rocky told me up front that he didn't have the fabric in stock, although it was on order from the UK, but that it might take a little longer than two weeks. I told him that I still wanted to pay the extra for a "rush" order (hey, six-eight weeks is WAY too long for me to wait for something!), because I trusted him and knew that he'd get my kilt out as soon as possible. Well, he called me two weeks later saying that he'd gotten the fabric finally and that my kilt would be made and out the door in under a week. Like clockwork, I received my kilt literally eight days from when he called me saying that he'd received the fabric. I know that I paid an extra fee for a 2-week rush, but I also knew that USAK was out of the tartan I wanted and was awaiting their shipment (which Rocky told me right upfront.) I still paid the extra for the rush, and to this day I'm glad that I did. They got my kilt to me (including shipping!) within a week of getting the fabric. Did I mention that I sent Rocky several emails and called the shop a few times? He returned every single one of them and never once did he get on me for annoying him (which I'm sure I did!) You will be pleased when your kilt arrives! And let me also say, you're not alone when it comes to getting a new kilt! Hell, I've seen guys here that have upwards of 20 kilts that still get all squishy inside when they know their latest purchase is on its way! I lurked on XMark's for over two years before I finally registered and ordered my first kilt about a months after that! I have a new catchphrase (and it's so simple that there's no way I'm the first person to think it up, but...): "Welcome To Freedom!" Slainte!!!

I love to see the Jones bite a new Kilt owner like this. It's as exciting for us Kiltmakers as it is for you.

This is the reason I installed Skype with a webcam in my shop. I can call a customer and they can actually watch me work on their Kilt.

You think you are excited??? There have been times I've had to turn the sound down because the customer is yelling with this real high pitched voice into the microphone. "Oh cool, you basted another pleat!!! Hold it up!!!!!! Hold it up so I can see it again!!!!!!!".
