Interesting, I appreciate the clarification for that.

I've seen the maker "Braw Kilts" mentioned once or twice before this in recent forum posts and the reception about their work is usually good. The prices for their kilts seem much more manageable than the others and at-least, from what you and one other person have said, the work is fully worth the cost. It seems like a really good deal.

They look to be a much smaller scale business than the ones I originally listed. Is it safe to say that the person measuring you will also be the one making your kilt?

And for my last question: Do you know if their kilts are primarily hand sewn? It mentions "hand sewn garments" on their website, but I would like to make 100% sure I am understanding that correctly.
