    Nice Barb. I also noticed one kilt has two straps/buckles, one with belt loops, and two have three straps/buckles. You pretty much covered it all in only three photos.

    Yup - different people have different preferences!

    Good examples of color variations and pleating options. Thank you for sharing your pictures, Barb.

    Have you done a kilt in the Douglas Grey tartan?

    I made one several years ago for piper Andrew Douglas (if you're a piper, you know who he is - played for SFU and is now pipe major of Oran Mor). I never did take a picture of it. But will see him this weekend at the NH Highland Games. If he has it with him, I'll grab a pic - would be a nice addition to the set of photos.
