I no longer fit into the first Stillwater kilt I bought, which was an Economy in Black Watch, with a 52" waist. Red_Raven_Studios disassembled it this morning. The nice thing about them not cutting out the extra cloth after sewing in the pleats is that when you disassemble it, you end up with a length of tartan that you can use for something else (She's going to make a tartan skirt for herself). Anyway, the 52" waist SWK Economy kilt yielded a use-able length of tartan a hair under 24 inches wide, and a hair over 6 yards long.
