    Wink Owner has his new Bear Tartan 4-yd box-pleat

    So here are some pictures that several Xmarkers have been asking for.
    I received the pictures in the mail --- actual pictures (!!) made in a photo-lab!
    Essentially all pictures these days are digital, so receiving pics in the mail was rather nostalgic and refreshing. LOL

    This is the box-pleated Bear Tartan Kilt that I recently made for my friend John who is sporting his new kilt in the pictures below. He tells me that he loves the kilt (and that makes me very happy .









    I'm going to ask him for a pleat shot.

    Hey! That's great, Mein. Glad you were able to get the pictures and that your friend is happy with his box in Bear.

    Still think that would be neat if you, your friend, and Aldisimo are able to meat up at that upcoming event and get a picture.

    Thanks gentlemen (McMurdo, Rex, Highlander, Aldisimo,Ted). Yeah, a pleat shot would be good to see.


    Yes, Ted, my friend (in the photo above), Aldisimo and myself are attending a square dance convention in DC in April. I hope Chris sends Aldo his Bear Tartank in time so we three can have a picture taken in our Bear Tartanks.

    Mein,

    It looks like the new owner is happy with his new kilt.

    Well done

    One thing though, you might let him know to wear his sporran just a tad lower, it will look better.

    Cheers

    Jamie
