Splits and measurements!?!?

[Gilvray]

Thanks Barb, Steve, ChattanCat and Moosedog... its starting to become clear - ... (like Barbs book says: beginners dont get "you'll just know when its right" - they prefer an exact equation! )

Right - onwards and upwards - time to get back to it! I'll post some pics as I progress - bit of a blog - not done one of those yet.

Thanks again.... XMarksTheScot Rocks! (ahem - as they say....)

I have to admit, I've been reading the book evenings lately as well, and had just gotten to the whole concept of splits, which don't figure into the XKilts I've made previously. I was most interested to see this thread come up and the advice to others helps, I think, I'll have to look again when I have the book and my own measurements in front of me.

I'm hoping to have my "practice" traditional, in the "light grey" blend from F&K for Christmas as well, but I think I'm going to try to make up my badger first.

Wish me luck!!

You'll do fine! And you can always post your questions for advice as you go along.
