Not sure if this is the right way but I figured I'd introduce myself. My name is Mike. I joined this forum because I've been wanting to buy a kilt for years. It's one of those luxuries I can't quite talk my wife into yet though. I recently acquired an old canvas tent with no poles I'm debating cutting up to make a utility kilt. My mother in law made me a cheapie quick almost kilt not much better than a Halloween costume for me to wear to a Warrior Dash obstacle mud run but it's not really great. So, I'm hoping to find enough instruction and advice in here to gain the confidence to take on the project of making my own.
