Hello Form Victoria

[jkruger]

Hey there everybody,

I bought my first Kilt from Steve Ashton at Freedom Kilts in Victoria late January and have been wearing it almost daily since. I didn't get a Freedom Kilt kilt but he had a one kicking around from USAKilts that he sold me second hand for a good bargain I think. The next couple of days I got the idea in my head that I was going to try a DIY kilt project and bought Barb Tewksbury's book from him. The door to Steve's shop is open and his customer service is awesome. When I started on a couple of DIY projects with absolutely no sewing experience at all I later went to Steve and he gave me a ton of advice and pointers.
Right now I have a semi-traditional kilt being made by a Scottish kilt-maker in the city and I'm getting really antsy.

It certainly sounds as if the kilt bug has bitten you!

from the Scottish Borders. One of my mother's uncles emigrated to Victoria about a hundred years ago and has lots of descendents living in Vancouver Island, some of whom I met when I stayed at the Royal Scot Motel in Victoria for three and a half weeks back in 1987.
