    US Army Tartan Jonesing Begins...

    OK, I've held off on this post for a full TEN HOURS...

    I've placed my order for a semi-trad with Rocky & Co - and so the Jonesing begins! (With an 8 - 9 week gestation period. Sigh...)

    Anyone else starting to Jones?

    Only for my Maple Leaf kilt from MacHummel, my kilt pin for same and my digi-camo material for my first x-kilt. Congrats on your new order, wear it well (in 8-9 weeks).

    Already 2 weeks into the jones. To medicate, I've already ordered 3 new pairs of kilt hose, 1 new belt, 1 new belt buckle, and a balmoral like Ham's. Probably going to order an RKilt next week when I have the cash as well.

    Its looking like I'm gonna go with the yellow stripe, but I haven't actually told Rocky what to do yet (actually I would still like feedback to the most recient pics I put up http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/s...705#post321705 ). They won't have the fabric for 6-8 weeks yet, since it is being run special.

    US Bicentennial

    I am waiting on my US Bicentennial 8 yard kilt pleated to blue stripe from Rocky, I hope to be able to pick it up this weekend.

    I have two projects I am working on for kilts myself, but that isn't really jonesing it is the honey to do list, and life that is getting in the way.

    I've got a new USA kilt on the way (St. David's National - Casual.) I'm figuring in the next day or few.

    Yep. Although my US Army is to be given as a gift, so it's an indirect kind of jones. But then it makes it easier to justify getting myself one, as well. Uh oh. I've vowed my next "purchase" will be for some raw materials for a few projects I have in mind.
