No, I do not own 35 kilts!! I just received my tank, Friday, from Wallace Catanach (Waterfall Kilts), and it's his 35th kilt to be made. So, I'm the proud owner of Catanach #35!!

For those of us fortunate enough to own a Waterfall kilt, we know what a master piece it is...a true work of art. Wally has done a magnificent job on this had stitched wonder. And, he was such a please to do business with....great communication, and a commitment to perfection.

Wally spent a significant amount of time on the phone with me, making sure the measurements were correct, and a host of other pertinent questions.

This project started out with Wally having the material, MacDonagh tartan, woven by D.C. Dalgliesh, in Scotland. It's 8 yards of 16 oz. material that Wally said, "Is the best I have ever worked with."

The pictures do not do it justice. In fact, they look bad IMHO. In person, up close and personal, it's awesome, especially in the sunlight! I was in such a rush to try the kilt on that it's askew in the photos. The main tartan color is very close to bottle, with red, navy, and black stripes.

I got to wear it to a Christening today and it looked pretty sharp, I must say. I received several great comments. I dressed it up with a bottle tie, semi-dress sporran, and a Crail jacket my wife made, with harp buttons. Ah, I know, where are those pics?? I forgot the camera. Again!

If you're looking for a great kilt maker, a passionate one, then give Wallace a consideration.

Hope you like the pics.
