The best part about Barb is that she has the talent to make them, teach clearly, and share advise freely. A very rare combination!

IT's easy to get hooked on making your own kilts, ain't it? You can spend a LOAD of money to have some great looking kilts, or you can spend a little money and a little time to have an entire wardrobe of YOUR kilts. I prefer the latter.

I have five kilts that I didn't make... one caramel workman's UtiliKilt, a Grizzly-cut Maple Leaf BearKilt, a Grizzly-cut Cape Breton BearKilt, a black AmeriKilt, and an authentic hand-sewn Irish National from Scotland.

With your sudden/new-found skill, you can sit-down and make a kilt for any occasion. See a tartan that looks cool? Buy some and make a kilt. have a St. Patrick's party? Make a solid green kilt.

I'm currently making solid black kilts for my soon-to-be wife's Dad and his brothers. These large guys will all be kilted at the wedding. Since I can make them, there's no exhorbitant rental or purchase fees... which made this an easy "sell" to them.

See! There are many advantages to this skill!!!
