OK, about time for Barb T to plug her book (with Elsie S of course).

Hey Barb, how can we get a hold of a copy, how much does it cost, how much shipping, and will you autograph it before sending it?

I think after 11 bought kilts, with a few more in order, I ought to know more about how the dang things are made myself, so I can better recognize quality workmanship and design. Also I may need to delve into kiltmaking in a minor way, as my son has outgrown his infant kilt, and seeing the prices of those things (they are almost as expensive as a full adult kilt) I think I should at least see if I can make one as a winter project for my boy. In another thread I posted how I try to learn something, some new skill, each year---well this may be the year of learning kiltmaking for me. Kiltmakers have no fear---I am no threat to anybody's livelihood---only to myself. Wife wants to know when I had my last tetanus shot.
