Kathy Lare review
Well I procrastinated far too long on this review!
Without further delay..........
This is the "It's Christmas!" feeling in your stomache.
The first unwrapping!
The apron..
The pleats
Hem detail
If you look closely you can find a belt loop.
Buckle detail
Registration card, this is a four fold affair that was "cut apart" for the picture.
I can't begin to tell you all how pleased I am with this kilt. Kathy is a great person to work with and supplied me with a wonderful kilt.
The price was very fair I thought, there was a bit of a delay in getting it tho... I recieved an e-mail from Kathy about 10 weeks into the project stating that she had recieved the tartan, and it appeared to have been splashed with diesel fuel! She returned the package un-opened and we had to wait for fresh wool to be sent.
Other particulars: Brown modern tartan, 16 oz, 9 yards used in construction.

Congrats on your great looking kilt!!!
