Oh, and welcome back!

Thank you, thank you!

We got some pretty good pictures of our hand-fasting ceremony, so I'll be sure to upload those as well. My wife and I, along with our pastor and officiant, didn't want the photographer in front of the pews, so there's only a few good photos.

Good to hear of all the Kilts. You do have a mighty looking Kilt.

Thanks! It's definitely very heavy.

So did you re-press the pleats? I am assuming that is what you were putting the basting stitches in for. Looks like a nice kilt, can't wait to see it in use.

Yessir. I measured about 2/16" of green outside the white stripes on both sides at the end of the sewn portion. At the bottom of the kilt, some of the pleats were very close to 1" of green! It is military box pleated, so it was pretty difficult getting the pleats to do what I wanted them to. After all was said and done, it looks marvelous however. I'm very happy with it.

Luckily for me, my step-dad was the photographer. My mom was nice enough to send a few pictures.

Hopefully the last one is ok for this site. If not, I do apologize.
