to buy a crappy ebay kilt for project?
I still have a few more weeks until my Kerr kilt arrives from Matt Newsome. This is my very last semester of graduate school. It's going by slow enough, and then I purchased a kilt to make it go even slower?? Poor planning! Anyway.
While I wait for my kilt to arrive, I've been wanting to make a box pleat kilt. I've been thinking of finding a beautiful fabric from Joanne Fabric to make into a kilt. Well I happen to like perusing ebay when bored, as sometimes you can find some nifty stuff cheap. Today I stumbled across some crappy looking kilts made in the Kerr tartan, something I never find on there.

I've little doubt its a piece of crap given its price, and it just doesn't look right. But I was thinking that perhaps it would be possible to unstitch the kilt, and remake it as a box pleat kilt? I was also contemplating making a box pleat kilt in khaki, with tartan inside the pleats. Opinions?
