Hey all... I'm back at least for a little while... not that I was missed .... lol.

Life has gotten busy in a good but non-kilted sort of way. Promotion at work has kept me out of a lot of things.. but I guess it's not a bad thing.

I have been asked to play pipes at some weddings, and hope to make that more of a steady thing. I have a couple of kilts to get started (in addition to my band uniform), but I believe the jacket is a necessary part of the ensemble. I haven't found a cheaply priced decent jacket and I am sure that even if I did find it, the fit wouldn't be the greatest.

I was wondering if there are patterns available for Prince Charlie or Brian Boro Jackets. Has anyone had a jacket made for them? Was the price comparable to a purchased one? I know it depends upon the seamstress, of course.. but was it worth it?

Thanks!
Tom
