Hello my new friends!
I have visited this site several times, and now am joining the fun. I have one kilt which I remade from a Pendleton tartan pleated skirt. Looks OK for a $20 kilt! But now I have an "ex-hire" MacNeil tartan kilt winging its way here from Scotland. Should be here in a few days. I plan to wear it for the Treasure Valley Celtic Fair and Highland Games, which will be September 23 & 24th. Come join us here in Boise for this event. I love to make stuff, so am in process of remaking a green leather purse into a Rob Roy style sporran. Also, inspired by some posts here, I bought a tweed blazer and will confidently (?) cut and sew to make a kilt coat of it. I will try to post pictures as these projects slowly progress.
Thanks for all your enthusiasm and inspiration!
Tim

Well met Tim. Take your time with your projects and posting of photos. We are not just fun but a patient sort here (to a degree). Welcome

Welcome from the other side of the Atlantic. (Too far to come to your event!) I'm a Scotsman living in the English midlands.
