    Well, from what can be seen the kilt looks fine in the photo. How are the pleats?

    Congrats on a fine effort and welcome to the rabble,

    Cheers,

    Congratulations on your first effort! That first one is always scary and it looks fine from the front. How did the pleats turn out? Those can be tricky, to say the least. Mar

    If I understand your concern, the kilt is too large in the waist? This can be cured by increasing the width (depth?) of the apron pleats, and moving the left strap if the amount is not too much.
