Well, I guess I am making up for lost time. After being away from kilting for a while I have received two new kilts in two days. This one is a black Stewart from Stillwater kilts. This particular kilt will be a tide-over kilt until I can get Barb or Kathy to sew up an 8 yarder in this fabric. You see, my very first kilt was a Stillwater standard in this tartan. This was proof to myself that I would even wear the kilt. That particular item was given away a couple of years ago, but I have always missed the tartan.

So when Jerry offered it in his heavyweight collection, I just had to buy it. I will steam out the creases tonight and remove the third strap and buckle and wear it proudly tomorrow.

So now that the itch has started again, I wonder what will be next on my list? Will it be the weathered Robertson Red I have had my eye on, or will it be the Maple Leaf box-pleat with the fabric I have? Or even the Antarctic or the New Mexico land of enchantment? So many choices, so little money.
