Exactly... and it's part of the 'artistry' (if you'll allow me the indulgence to use that term) of kiltmaking. Taking someone else's cloth (imperfections and all) and making a perfectly tailored garment from it. The end result should not have any visible flaws... part of our job is to find them and either FIX them or get new cloth if they can't be fixed.
