Okay I'm still having a tough enough time understanding P1M, so stop it now!

Hmm, you think I have too many kilts?

Silly question alert!

[MacGregor]

Well, I posted a thread at about 6 or so with all the particulars in the kilt advice forum, but I can't seem to see it...anyhow, I think that Matt's may be a bit too rich for my blood.
I am from the Jacksonville area, so I'm a bit north of you. We've just had our Highland Games this past weekend, quite a fun event! : )

Thanks again, everyone!
A question: Is there a proper forum to talk about your clan, or is that not permitted here?

Welcome aboard,

If its cheap you want, check out SportKilt

http://www.sportkilt.com/departments....cfm?afid=1003

They have the tartan. Just be sure to pay for the pleats, custom length, belt loops. The inexpensive model is just gathered like a skirt, not pleated. And first thing when you get it take off the logo.

But hey, for your clan tartan one should save up for a hand sewn tradtitional out of 16 oz Strome wool.

Or, one of each....

Hi MacG
I`m new too, haven`t posted my introductory message yetbut may be able to help you. Fraser and Kirkbright weaving Co are selling 16oz double width MacGregor Modern tartan fabric for cdn$16 per meter. It works out at about US$75 including postage for 4 meters. Then all you need is a kilt maker. Hope this helps.

That's definitely permitted. I've seen such discussions in the Heraldry and Tartans sub-forum, but I would imagine that the General Kilt Talk forum would work too.
Mods?? Where do you want it?
