So, I went out with the women-folk to do the post-Thanksgiving shopping thing, which meant an early morning stop at Jo-Ann fabrics. Wool suitings were 50% off, so I was looking pretty heavily. They had one bolt of Royal Stewart (or at least a close copy), but it had less than 1.5 yards on it. However, I did find this:



So, with 5 yards, and 58" width to play with, I should be churning out my first acrylic wool box-pleat over Christmas break, as well as getting my camouflage kilt finished.

I'm going to pleat this to the red stripe, simply so more red shows up (because I need to find something to wear my fire-engine red hose with). I'll get a project post up for both kilts (and any others) up once I get them done.

DIY JONES!!!
