    Because this is a pipe band kilt, my suggestion would be to save it for someone else in the future and get a new one to fit this person. If you were to charge for a total re-build, you would have to charge not only for the re-stitching time but also the cost for your time to take the whole damn thing apart, plus an extra charge for the really challenging aspect of trying to re-pleat a piece of tartan with big chunks cut out at every pleat. Personally, I wouldn't take the job even if they paid me the full cost of a new kilt!!!
