I asked for the kilts to be pleated to the white stripe. Beautiful!
Child sporrans, perfect with the 3 tassels.
I also got a few yards of extra fabric to make a couple of wraps for my wife and daughter as well.
My sons have both been asking for their own kilts for a while now. I know they will really enjoy these even more because they can put them on themselves without having to ask Dad to pleat the plaid cloth they've been wearing.
I started to give the kilts to them tonight, but I'll have to wait at least till I get the wraps made for the girls.
Pics to come soon, but I wanted to give Stillwater my appreciation now because the service and product were perfect.
That's awesome! Jerry rules! I ordered my son his first nice kilt from SportKilts tonight. I got him a Loch Nes SK standard, plus matching flashes and tie. My mom is getting him a nice suit jacket. I know he'll look killer in them! Can't wait!!

I've not taken the pics of everyone in their kilts yet but thought I'd share a shot of the small purse I made for my daughter to go with her MacKenzie shawl. I was torn between using the hook closure you see here or a magnetic closure, but my wife said go with this one and she was right. The magnetic would have left the bag looking to plain. I may come in later and edge the flap in a thinner leather to give a finished edge.
