The pics of that tartan as a kilt are awesome.

And I've just been forced to rethink this plan... where I feel pretty comfortable doing all the sewing and what not to get this kilt made... I've yet to practice pleating to the stripe or to the set. All I have worked with so far is a camo pattern, so I wasn't worried about the pattern showing up in the pleating. I think I'm going to start with some cheaper material then go from there. Surely there'll be a third run at some point.

This tartan just looks way too good to have to work it over and over.
