Tweed kit at Burns Dinner

**Mac Ghille Sheathanaich** · 31st January 10, 10:35 AM

Greetings all, 31 January, 1025amMST

Thanks all for your kind comments. The kilt has a bit over four yards in it. The Argyll, waistcoat and bonnet, took about three, if I remember right.

Had many nice comments at the Dinner last night as well. The Boise event has about five hundred in attendance with both of the big bands from Boise providing all the close-in pipes and drums that any son or daughter of Scotland could ever hope for.

One old Scot gent who always gives the "Address to a Haggis", inspected me very closely and commented nicely about my workmanship. He's not a man to be overly impressed either.

Took a cursory look at my necktie and simply stated "Shaw". He would know, being a Davidson.

Not to be bragging mind you..........I do what I can.

Be watching elsewhere, as our Brother "Macthenife" will be posting up pix from last night as well. He is in the Lovat green Argyll and waistcot that I made for him.

Fide et Fortitudine, aye!

That is one great looking kit. You should be very proud of your labor and ability.

Beautiful! It's making my jones for my tweed kilt twice as bad!

Very fine job Brother. You are an artist to say the least.

Friends, I've seen this work close up and it is without flaw. I really can't express in words the talent this man has.

I will be posting photos of the fine jacket and waist coat Mac Ghille Sheathanaich made for me shortly.

Slainte!
