A Photo Journal of Kilt Kamp 2014
I will be posting photos throughout Kilt Kamp 2014, showing participants and, of course, their kilts and the efforts in producing the kilts!
The first participant showed up this morning- Truitt from Alaska, wearing the Harley-Davidson tartan and a really cool sporran by Artificer. He has a number of great travelling stories to relate about driving down from Anchorage!

After he got himself settled into his temporary abode, he and Steve took off in the Jaguar to pick up supper --

Tomorrow the rest of the Kampers will be coming in....some by ferry, some by plane....... Stay tuned for more photos then.

More people have arrived!

The first casualty of Kilt Kamp. Okiwen goes to show Steve a new knife, whereupon Steve slices his finger open. Sigh.....

They are already at it this evening -- laying out the pattern for the first kilt.

When making a contemporary kilt, the waist position may vary depending on how the person wishes to wear the kilt. Here is BruceBC deciding where he wants his kilt to rest.

We started off this morning with the phenomenal expression of fashion sense! Can you guess who is attached to the legs?
