    I used the part I cut off the bottom to make the double breasted part. I just held my breath and let the garment take off. It worked just fine.

    Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.

    Nah, like what others have said, it's the MacKenzie Modern. Also the tartan used by the Seaforth Highlanders. Got a 9-yarder in 18 oz wool that I wore today in a more casual manner.

    BTW: Victoria, looks great.

    Ooh, well done! I've been considering something like that for a Sherriffmuir-like garment---perhaps without the tashes.

    Looks great. Wonderful to see others wearing their medals proudly. I wear mine at Burns' Night and at Scottish Country Dance Balls. Maybe, the next time I go to the opera or symphony I'll wear mine too. Thanks for the idea.
