    Well done. Did you have the idea and go looking for fabric, or find the fabric and go "Oh! Kilt!"?

    Saw the fabric and decided it needed to be made into a kilt.

    Interesting fabric and good craftsmanship.

    It might very well be the strong vertical lines in the pattern creating a different effect to a disruptive pattern or a solid shade.

    Plus, any curling would emphasise the illusion.

    I have come across garments where it is necessary to make alterations when making the same thing in different patterns, but I had thought that for a kilt it was only necessary to tweak the measurements of the pleats to achieve different pleating effect - I think I'll have to concede that there are considerations other than preferred style to be taken into account when deciding on the width of the apron.
