    That would be it, although usually there are three or more rows of basting stitches.

    I'd like to thank all those who have sent me personal messages in support of my legal undertakings recently. I must accept some responsibility for not acting sooner after reading the doubts of some of you which actually was warrented at the time and even more so now.

    I'm still working on my descriptions and awaiting results on tests that I have asked a local kilt maker here in eastern Ontario she lives between Carleton Place and Perth, I will post results here on X Marks and in my descriptions on eBay and on my website.

    On another note I have not read any of the subsquent posts since my last visit when I posted my note about whats been going on, I hope you all have a little patience as this battle will take some time, I have however set up a couple of appointments with an officer at Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada (DFAIT) and Export development Canada on the topic of how I may proceed with my claim for false advertising and fraud against the company that I was doing business with, thats all I can say at the moment but I will keep you up to date with any other news.

    Thank you all again for your support and for those who said "I told you so" ....you did.

    Best regards,

    Sean

    Smurphs1 has taken down the men's kilt section of his website. I assume he is restructuring. I think he is an honest businessman.

    I hope Sean keeps us informed as to how the legal process is going. Undoubtedly it will take some time, but I'm glad he's chosen to take the right path on this one.

    Well it appears that I don't know my fabric. After 3 or 4 wearings I noticed the beginnings of the kind of pilling I've come to expect from acrylic fabric, so I did a burn test and got the same results that have been posted all ready on this thread. This isn't wool, despite the label. Ah well.....
    I've kilt for less.

    well

    This is more proof that it is not Seans fault. He doesn't put the labels on...

    Good luck, and God be with you!
