    Lovely,

    Is it my eyes, or the camera...sorta kinda looks like the kilt is hemmed rather than having a selvedge edge...? Curious.

    Nope Ron, trust me as I held the kilt ransom for a couple days it is a selvedge edge, Barb recently had a thread on this very kilt and how she dealt with the selvedge.

    In case you're interested, here's the post on the selvedge for this piece of tartan.
