    Two "gurl" related questions


    Hi Gang, and Happy post Boxing Day.
    I have one girl I'm kinda sorta dating that wants a kilt in red with gold, green, and black stripes - no idea what tartan that would be. I sent her the Stillwater Wallace link so maybe she'll think that's close enough.
    Another friend wants to wear a kilt with her man Andy but unlike a men's "gut cut" baby's got back and needs a "butt cut". Do any of the makers have such a beast?
    Feel free to tackle whichever or both questions.
    Thanks

    As for "Oh my god, Becky look at her butt..." I've got a similar issue- I just make skirts a little longer than I actually am going to wear them. And I make sure the pleats in my skirts are sewn down a smidge past the half-way point of my curvy bits... however I'm usually the one sewing them down, since most women's pleated skirts are waistbandpleat with no interruption.

    (PS- 'sorta dating?' Are you not sure who's there when it happens? )

    in case ...

    :razz:
    "sorta" as in she's WEIRD !!! Even though her last name is Guiness (note only one N ) we're way too different and I have no idea what she could possibly see in me. I'm a construction worker and she's a hotel concierge - no class vs. high society. I'll play along til she figures it out ....

    ps: thanks for the link, that's kind of fun.

    CT - can you beer me now? good.

    Careful with that stuff... Ten years ago, I was a truck driver, that barely attained a HS diploma and dropped out of college, "kinda sorta" dating a girl working toward her masters in literature at the university... We're married now, and I'm back in college!

    I wasn't aware that concierges were required to be on the Social Register...?

    There's nothing low-class about construction as long as we're talking about craftsmen. It wasn't easy to become a Mason, back when you had to actually be a mason. Teaching an illegal alien to sling paint doesn't count (just to illustrate the other end of the scale).

    But anyway... classy women know which men are worth having - which are dudes with muscles and skills. And kilts.

    This thread addressed making a kilt with a "back" to it - closest I've seen to your kiltmaker question. There are kiltmakers that offer kilt skirts - one of them should have addressed this by now ...
