That's a really nice tartan. I like it a lot!
Hell, if I had money I'd ever consider getting one like that, except I bet the yellow would look silly on me.

I also bought some yellow canvas for the liner, some heavy thread, and curved needles.
I cut 8 yards at my length and zig zagged the top edge, so it wouldn't fray while I make the kilt. Everything else I'm going to hand stitch.
I have no idea if it will be ready for Kilts Night this Saturday. I hope so.
Well, if it is ready for kilts night, we'll see you coming........

I had considered a USA kilt in this material, but my wife pretty much nixed the idea. I think that JC's whistler's kilt looks pretty sharp.

As one who's witnessed Jimmy in this kilt (That's the one you wore to Finnigan's, right?) It's a VERY striking tartan.
I've been generally looking at more drab and earth-toned tartans for my future kilts. That one just opened my eyes to something outrageous.
