    Bethany's Kilt

    If you search back in the DIY forum, you will find a thread where I talk about making a kilt for my throwing friend and general Amazon, Bethany. Bethany is happily referred to as "Miss BoomBah" by several of us in the Rabble. Gotta love her.

    That thread is date-marked 5/11/2009, I think.

    Well....it's done. Finally. I'm giving it to her at practice tonight. I was going to give it to her at Tartan Day at Ardenwood, this past Saturday, but I was playing Athletic Director for the Heavies and I just plain forgot, what with all the details. Anyway, it's a doozy. It's black with a flame pattern material that shows when the pleats flash.

    It's also at least triple the amount of work of any other contemporary kilt I've ever made.

    Pics to come, either tonight or tomorrow....in fact, now that I think of it, the pics won't arrive until Woodland (next weekend) because I don't have my camera, today. BUT THERE WILL BE PICS.

    I remember some discussion about what kind of socks she'd wear with it, and someone found some flame-cuffed ones online. Was that at sockdreams.com? I can't remember.

    Way cool! Of course, we want pics. Even better though, is pics with her wearing the kilt!

    Good job getting this done Alan!

    A day without killting is like a day without sunshine.
