Sorry to hear that event didn't work well for you. I guess there weren't as many people clamouring for Irish county tartans as I thought! I was imagining you selling hundreds of Irish county tartan neckties, and people getting measured for kilts, and such.
At our huge Irish Fair here in Southern California back in the 1980s it seemed like any object whatsoever that had an Irish county name on it sold like hotcakes. Sadly that Fair has shrunk to near non-existence in recent years; it's pretty much only a Feis now.
The 7 hour drive from central WV to USA Kilts is just too far to justify unless it's combined with another destination. Next year I'll do the Mid Atlantic Air Museum/Gettysburg/USA Kilts thing that I planned for this year, until health issues forced me to cancel.
Your virtual tour is great, but I really need to see everything in person! Try on some tweed! And get myself kitted out in grand style.
