    One more plug for a great resource. I'm still machine stitching, but the book is the right tool for the job whatever you plan on doing to a kilt.

    A great thread! The Art of Kiltmaking is a fantastic book. Unfortunately I have only had the time to read through it once. I do intend to make make my own kilt someday, and I know that this book will guide me through every step of the process. Everyone who owns a kilt, and especially those thinking about making a kilt, needs to invest in a copy of this book!

    TA of K

    Greetings all, 30 December, 12:43MST

    I purchased The Book a long time ago, and have made several kilts. I get better with each one.

    To me there is something intensely satisfying, in a Neo-Pagan sort of way, in leaving a bit of my own blood in every kilt I make.

    A part of me stays with my creations forever, or at least until the first dry-cleaning.

    Fide et Fortitudine, aye!

    Just

    BUY
    THIS
    BOOK

    You will never look at a kilt the same way as you did before you read it. You will u n d e r s t a n d what a kilt is, how it is made.

    Even if you never make one yourself: BUY THIS BOOK!

    I have many of the same reasons for having two copies of Barb's book. What is a wonder to me is that I learn something new every time I open it up.
