that I found somewhere. Industrial strength, too. I cut it down to 2".
I ended up moving the front apron to seam by the waistband down by 1/2 inch at the opening, so had to shift the whole thing anyhow. I sewed bits of velcro on in several places, right at the waistband. I aslso had some VERY small buckles that I used temporarly until I get some larger ones. It works.

Still need to do sme final adjustments. He is wearing it, and is pleased. He is use to traditional kilts and wider front aprons. The 10 inches I used is a bit hard for him to get use to, but he is adjusting. I believe it needs snaps or buttons down the sides of the front apron. It looks like it is just missing something.

Overall, it took me about 12 hrs.

Thank you Alan!
