    That's one kilt I wanna see too. It sounds very similar to a Pittsburgh two-tone kilt and then there's an explosion of flames all 'round the front.

    Here's a thought:

    (I even found some for Panache's loud MacLoed kilt:

    ...and here's the killer. She wants to embroider orange flames along the hemline of the kilt, going maybe 1/2 way up the apron and do a mess of beading on the over-apron. OK, I sew the kilt, I'll put in the kick pleat, but SHE does the embroidery!

    No worries, I WILL show pics of this thing, if it comes to pass!
    Just remember Alan, the bigger the challenge, the greater the satisfaction when it's completed. Looking forward to seeing the kilt (I have my dark glasses at the ready next to my monitor,...just in case.)
