    Hi Graham,

    Well done on your first attempt. I think you made a wise choice, going for a non-tartan fabric. Gives you the freedom to swap and change flashes with different kilts. It also gives you a new hobby - you will be forever fondling fabric and thinking 'Can I make this into flashes?'

    Regards

    Chas

    those look very nice, quite professional.

    Next, if you want, you can experiment with adding loops. Each segment can have a single loop, or even a triple loop etc.

    Over the years I've often made flashes when I couldn't find the exact colour I was after. I made white flashes for my wedding outfit.
