Hello all!

I am doing a speak for a public speaking class, and my topic is the evolution of the kilt. I wish to wear a historically accurate great kilt. I have a length of fabric, 6 yards long. But this fabric is only 45 inches wide. I am a small guy, but pretty tall. Should I cut the fabric into two 3 yard pieces and sew them together to create one 3 yard by 90 inch piece of cloth, and then trim it from 90 inches to around 60 inches?

Any help is appreciated!
