Thank you Anne for your input. I will search for less fabric of less significance to try out a Kingussie style kilt. Being that I am a 45-46 inch waist and 47-48 inch hip ( 26 in length) would 5 meters of SW 16oz tartan typically be enough for a standard Kingussie for me?

I will save the Allen for now for a special handmade 8yd traditional that can stand the test of time, both physically and in style.

Thanks again, Anne.
