Discourse on inexpensive kilt material

[Wompet]

Machine-sewn ... Alan, I wouldn't even want to attempt machine sewing the one kilt I've been making. Lightweight eBay PV, so light that I had to line it with 7 oz hemp-cotton to make it heavy enough to wear.

I second Alan's recommendation-

I've hand sewn 2 kilts from the 6" sett Douglas I got from F+K.

After that I gave up on the time required and continued making my son's kilts on the machine. He just grows too quickly.

Cheers,

Kevin.
