That is a unique and beautiful tartan. I`m looking forward to seeing what you do with it.

Thank you, friends, for the kind remarks.

No idea how I want this pleated. However there's no way I'm going to be making a kilt of it myself. I learned a thing or two at Kilt Kamp, one being if I want something done right, I'd better not do it myself, at least when it comes to kilts. The Dalrymple will be going to a professional kilt maker.

The color scheme probably isn't one I'd chose for myself, if it didn't have a family connection, but it is distinctive, and will always be very uncommon, which gives it some appeal.

Now that you have the fabric (I must echo the others that it is great) don't spend another 50 years figuring out what to do with it. I expect the finished kilt will exceed your imagination.

I'm torn about what to do. I'd like to have a kilt made of Dalrymple ASAP, but on the other hand want to wait to have one made when I've lost more weight. I've I had one made now there'd be about 4-inches of take-up in the straps, then I could move things to allow the kilt to be taken in even more. Or, I could wait until I've reached my goal of at least an additional six-inch reduction in girth -- but that will take a while. So, I'm thinking now I'll have one kilt made right away, and hang onto enough tartan to make another later.
