Greetings Lads and Lassies,

So while I wait for my first "real" kilt to come along, I thought to myself: well, maybe I could make an xkilt. Problem! I went into the local fabric shop today and they really didn't have any poly/cotton twill I could see making a kilt in. Sorry, but a baby blue kilt seems just to wrong! But they did have a nice tan in a poly/cotton poplin. IS this a reasonable alternative?

I would usually ask my wife a question like this, but she is starting to roll her eyes when I start talking kilts, so I thought it probably best to throw this one out to the rabble.

Thanks for any help you can offer

Robert
