    Kilt maker needed...

    Hello everyone.

    I have been searching for a kilt maker to make a custom kilt for me. I have the material already... (10 yards of 60" wide material).

    I have attempted to contact several makers on the web but havn't gotten a response from anyone!

    I am in NY and would appreciate any help or points towards a quality maker

    Regards

    Cas

    Welcome to the board Casca,

    Given that you are in NY, try sending a Private Message to the following members:

    Barb T.
    M.A.C Newsome
    MacHummel from www.CanadianCasualkilts.com
    Rocky from www.USA Kilts.com

    They are all pretty near by to you and each should be able to sort something out for you.

    It all depends on how much you are willing to spend of course, but if I were to have someone make me a kilt, I would talk to Matt Newsome.
    He is a member of this board, and by all accounts a joy to work with.

    I've also made kilts for several X Markers. I'd be happy to quote you a price.

    Would you please tell us something of the style of kilt you would like from your fabric.
    This would help us direct you in the right direction.

    I wear the kilt because:
    Swish + Swagger = Swoon.
