Finally, a traditional kilt that fits! (Steve Ashton's FK was used as a benchmark.)
This thing is a work of art. Everything is beautifully centered and perfectly aligned. You can't see a stitch. Fits like a glove.
Here's the kicker: Barb tells me that she worked on it in the back seat of a car. Now, if that isn't talent, I don't know what is.
Thanks, Barb. This is a very bright spot in what has otherwise been a very challenging week.
Regards,
Rex in Cincinnati
p.s. Say, Barb, on the matter that we deliberated on: so, what do you think?

Reason: Clarified meaning of "finally" and "kilt that fits."
At any moment you must be prepared to give up who you are today for who you could become tomorrow.
