    I wonder whose kilt that is..... Oh, that's right, now I remember.

    Thanks, Barb, for "flagging" us down on the inner workings of the kilt!

    I salute you!

    So when is this second edition (featuring that incredibly tasteful Isle of Skye kilt that some lucky X'smarkser is waiting so patiently for) scheduled to be released?

    Ahhh, depends on my work load. I'm hoping that I can have everything ready to go to the printer before second semester starts. If I don't, it will be June (I'm teaching an overload this spring, and my daughter is getting married right after Memorial Day...). So, I'll know better by mid-January. It will be a real squeeze to get it done by then, particularly if I have issues with converting my old PageMaker files to InDesign files. I've done some testing, and it doesn't look like it will be as straightforward as I'd hoped. I _really_ hope I don't have to go back to the original drawing scans and relabel all of them, but I might. I'm having font issues. What I need to do is go visit my InDesign guru friend and hope he has an easy solution.

    On a cheerier note, I just spent the weekend down in North Carolina with Matt Newsome to see how he makes box-pleated kilts so that I can make one and then write a credible chapter that he can sign off on. He's also going to add some info on the history of box-pleated and knife-pleated kilts. When I was there, I got to see some antique kilts - one box-pleated kilt that dates from the early 1800s!!

    Cheers!
