    lethearen - Thank you

    As promised here are Pic's of me and the wonderful gift I was given by one of our own. I know this a duplicate post from his original thread, but I think his generosity is worthy of its own THANK YOU thread.

    lethearen,

    This is awesome. I can't even put it into words. It fits perfect on my hips, but as we discussed will require a belt on the waist. The belt is requires just to keep the apron edge down, but I could just add some extra Velcro to solve that problem.

    The hose fit!!!!!! Yeah!!

    Not the best head covering, but I thought it better than hat head or the baseball hat I had on all day. That was the beat solid tie I had, I think I will be on the lookout for a solid red. I was going to press the shirt but was getting impatient, as you can see by the wet spots on the vest from the iron.

    I didn't get the sporran finished it will look pretty much like this. I will most likely change the buckle. The strap is not attached yet, but was able to rig it enough for my daughter to snap the pic's

    Congratulations!

    That is a really outstanding thing to see! Lethearn is a truely generous man and an outstanding member of our community.
    The spirit of the Declaration of Arbroath (6 April 1320) abides today, defiantly resisting any tyranny that would disarm, disperse and despoil proud people of just morals, determined to keep the means of protecting their families and way of life close at hand.

    Glad it got to you so fast! I know you said you don't care for waistcoats much, but I think you look splendid. And the kilt looks much better on you (whom it fits) than it did on me And I'm glad the hose fit after all. Wear it all proudly!

    What's your wife think of the get up now that she's seen it on you?
