    Completed first box pleat!

    This my first box pleat and second DIY kilt overall. I made it from some remnants purchased from Fraser & Kirkbright. It's far from perfect but I'm dang proud of it. I definitely getting better with each one. My main problem as you can see in photo number two is wrinkles/dimples in the fell. I suspect I'm not keeping enough tension when I sew (and I think part of that is that I'm a lefty learning how to sew right handed). The sporran was also made by an X Marker, bricekolob.
