Barb,
Checked my measurements again. My off the racks are 24" total. My made to measure is 24" from center of the buckle to the bottom edge. The total length plus the rise is 26". I will use 24" plus 2" for the rise. Thanks for your help!

Glad to help! Would have been awful to go to all the trouble of making a kilt and discovering it was over 2" too long....!
