I have a casual kilt I'm working on, that i haven't touched in about a year -- maybe in this new attempt to show that we aren't rich I need to get back to it.
I think my sewing machine is calling!
Chris.
I am poor... (read single dad with two little boys that live with me...) AND I am currently unemployed.... for 60 bucks I was able to go out and get enough material (4 yardsx60 wide each of black and of green poly/cotton canvas and thread and pins etc etc) to do 4 kilts found me a NICE old sewing machine at a garage sale for 10 bucks and away I went....
So yea if your not afraid to jump in and do it yourself, you can have fun(atleast I have fun making new things and learing new skills) and not run yourself more into the poor house then you already are....
Now just to find a decent sporran LOL
