Thanks Chris! Yeah, I want to see it worn, too.

It's too small for me to try so I didn't post pictures of that.

Hi 1MUNK3. Thank you!! That's nice of you to say

Oh, it's a friend of mine (not an Xmarker [yet] who asked me to make this for him. Beartartan (Xmarker) is the copyright owner of the Bear Tartan, and I got the fabric from him.

Yeah I hear you - my friend did tell me that he's excited to get it. A friend of mine has the kilt in his carry-on luggage on its way to FL. Alas, he txt-ed me and said that his flight today is delayed 5 hrs as of noonish today. I hope he gets there tonight and deliver the kilt.

Hope it gets there all right, Mein. Let us know what your friend thinks of it.

A beaker for your Scotch??

Congratulations, Mein! Impressive work. I trust you sent to Florida instructions for photos along with the kilt.

Regards,
Rex.

Thank you Rex. The beaker (or we call it a "graduated cylinder" too) seemed more interesting than any shot glass that I could grab at the moment.

I txt-ed him today about sending pictures.
