    If the left-hand edge of the under apron is showing beneath the hem of the over apron, it's a very easy fix to taper that "under" hem. Barb T talks about doing it on full-blown trad kilts in this thread.

    I picked up and washed 6yards of the new Airforce camo for my Xkilt, (yes I was Airforce, along with Army and Navy). I will try to post pics when completed.
