A gold star for Erin
Steve, I appreciate the note you enclosed with my new Freedom Kilt. But there was no need to apologize. Remember, my friend, I told you to take your time. I believe I also said good things are worth waiting for and I certainly was not disappointed.
This morning I went to the Post Office to pick up my new 8.23 yard, 16 oz. Freedom kilt in the X Marks the Scot tartan. This kilt has been in the works since back in February, through no fault of Steve's. We've been through a botched batch of tartan, having to wait on a second run and a shop move for Steve et al, but this kilt is a masterpiece to behold and was well worth the wait.
Erin crafted up a charcoal poly-cotton dress kilt for me a few months back and I was very pleased with how it turned out. And it's quite plain to see Erin has been perfecting her craft in the ensuing months.
I still need to remove the basting stitches and I'm probably a week away from having any one around to drive the camera for me, but I did strap the kilt on for a quick trial and the fit is superb. I'll post pictures to this thread when I am able to get some taken.
Erin, if you're going to do excellent work like this, I may just have to talk to your employer about ordering another kilt. I will, of course, be specifying he assign the job to you. You definitely hit this one out of the park!
