    Excellent! Some of us were turning blue, from wating with bated breath!

    Another update - the book is on the press to tomorrow. I am _really_ excited - I went and watched it being printed the last time, and it is almost magical!!

    As an aside, the company who is printing the book is a local, employee-owned printing company, and they are truly the bee's knees. They do beautiful work, the people are incredibly nice, and they have always treated me as if I were going to be bringing them a million dollars of business a year. They are Canterbury Press of Rome, NY (http://www.canterburypress.com/), and I can't say enough good things about every person I've dealt with in the company. They don't just do local work, so, if you ever need printing done, consider them!!

    Cheers,

    Barb

    Barb,
    I hope it comes out quickly. I have a kilt in process and put the kilt up out of the way for the evening last night. Unfortunately, I left your book on my kilting table with a half glass of water. We have cats, and of course one of them loves to knock over anything with water in it. Yes, it hit the book and I didn't find it till this morning. It was lent to me by my mother, so let me know when I can replace it.

    A day without killting is like a day without sunshine.

    I've seen all three pieces (cover, black ink pages and finally the color pages) come off the press. All looks great! Binding and wrapping should be done this week. Fingers crossed !!!

    I broke down and ordered a copy the other day. How can anybody resist having a copy on hand even if they don't ever try to sew their own kilt: it has to be THE reference book for kilt construction. Can't wait.

    Best
