Ooo, fun!

First of all, if anyone is interested in more info about the Carolina tartan, here it is:

Second of all, we still have a good part of a bolt of cloth left in heavy weight wool, traditional Wilson of Bannockburn colors, for $75/yd at the museum. You can buy here:

Third of all, my pics!

This was actually the first Carolina kilt I owned. Four yard box pleat, which I made myself Christmas of 2006. It is in the modern colors, 16 oz Lochcarron strome. We had a bunch of this cloth woven for a pipe band (Cross Creek Pipes & Drums) who were getting new kilts in this tartan. I made sure to order a couple of extra yards for myself.


Here I am wearing the same kilt in a more formal setting at a Burns Supper in Murphy, NC, in 2007.

I have subsequently sold that kilt to a gentleman in the UK and made myself another box pleated kilt in the Carolina tartan, in the traditional colors of Wilsons of Bannockburn (the first large scale producer of tartan cloth, who standardized their dye colors sometime prior to the 1780s). Most of the Carolina kilts I've made for other people have been in this color scheme, which I really like. Here is one of my favorite pics of this kilt, where I am wearing it with a matching plaid.


This photo shows the plaid from the back.


I wore this kilt while modelling our Wallace (aka "Ghillie") jacket and waistcoat.


I wear this kilt a lot at Highland Games, especially ones in the Carolinas. Here I am at Grandfather Mountain last year, with my wife.
