It's a relatively simple matter of building the kilt from lengths of fabric that have been cut at a 90 degree angle to the selvedge. Your kilt will have to be hemmed, but it is unlikely that your tweed fabric would have a good kilting selvedge anyway. You will also have more seams as the kilt will incorporate multiple, shorter pieces of fabric but those seams are buried inside pleats. Hope this makes sense!
