    A Request:

    If you have a Stillwater Thrifty-Kilt, would you be so kind as you post some pictures of the pleats? I mean, with the kilt ON you.

    Thanks!

    Here is the Buchanan Thrifty. It's fully reversible. It's pleated differently on each side.

    My only photo (below) doesn't show the pleats. I will tell you that they are not very deep.

    You've piqued my curiosity.
    Why, a child of five could understand this. Quick -- someone fetch me a child of five!

    I told my cousin that I'd make him a kilt for Christmas. I then went and bought this lightweight PV that I've been writing about in the DIY forum. However, I've grown to really hate that stuff, and because it's a black and white tartan, it's essentially impossible to stitch down (topstitch) more-or-less invisibly. I've almost finished one kilt in it, and it's OK since the recipient is quite slender, but my cousin isn't. I'd rather that he has something different.

    AND...

    What I REALLY want to do is start on my Gray Stewart, which is warm-up for my Weathered MacNaughton. so I'm thinking about getting him a Thrifty Kilt, since I'm not at all sure that he'll actually wear the things.
