    Sounds good, though I think I would do considerably longer. My tartan is one that's not kept in stock by anyone, and various cousins are going to want some but not be able to readily get it otherwise. With a yard and metre being comparable, Elliot's minimum would be a kilt plus enough left over for a fly plaid and some accessories (or 2 kilts, if their material is full-width). I'll probably have a full bolt done.

    Robin mentioned 11 metres single-width.
