    One for all the Kilt makers out there

    Right ho folks,

    Here's one for you.............How much different in construction(stabilizer and interface ect) would say a kilt made around the early 1800's be, it would be fare to say it's only a short yardage kilt 4yrds.

    None of the kilts c1800-20 I've examined had any lining, stabilsing or interface material. Most also feature little or no cutting of the upper portion of the pleats either.
