No, though having made X-Kilts is coming in handy in terms of understanding the process. I've made this kilt differently from an X-Kilt. The two big differences are that the pleats aren't topstitched in the fell in this kilt, and the apron on this kilt is full width. The apron on an X-Kilt is 8-9-10 inches.
I think that making an X-Kilt is good preparation/education for stitching up any kilt, but it would be super preparation for stitching up a box-pleat tartan kilt out of PV.
Who's gonna be the first one to try one???
