    There is a picture in the actual paper of an olive green kilt alone. I guess it doesn't go on the web. The link won't last long either maybe a week...? It's on page three of the fashion section. I'm very pleased with the article. The phone has been ringing since 8:00 AM this morning!
    Ah there it goes again...
    Cheers

    Pel has been building kilts for two years, selling them through his website and at shows. They've been shipped to Tasmania, Finland, England, the United States and all across Canada.

    I was misquoted I have clients in these locations...but hey... I have your measurements yeah yeah no solid colour kilts
    besides Tansmania sounds exotic...all of us kiltmakers want to say we have kilts in Tasmania. Now I do have a fellow in Antartica who has one of my kilts...Working on one in Northern Canada. Off to Winnipeg soon and will be driving near Bubba's stomping ground. I have a few kilts going there but Winterpeg doesn't sound as exotic as Tasmania...what can I say.
    Cheers

    Congratulations Robert! What a great article. I hope it brings you good luck and maany orders. I couldn't help but noticing that Graham has a relative mentioned in the article, Ms. McEwen-Hall who likes to wear her kilt with green fish-net tights. (sorry Graham, it was to good to pass up)
