    hi Alan

    Now I understand! you only cover the top of the over apron strip! I can't figure it the past night. I just sew the waistband outside of the kilt, then sew the velcro to the waistband and then sew the waistband to the inside of it.

    But I make a BIG Waistband. 8 inches folded as your instructions that make a 2 inches Waistband.

    Just a few stiches more and I post some Pics.

    You're experimenting with things. That's GOOD! You will learn what works and what doesn't. That's GOOD. When you're all done you'll have a kilt that YOU made and you can wear and you can be proud of. That's GOOD.

    It's all good!

    Welcome!

    Welcome to the Rabble, and once more congratulations on making your first kilt. As a new member myself I havent quite grasped the depth and bredth of knowledge and experience to be found among this bunch. Just rambling through old posts more exposure to great ideas and advise than I can grasp at one time. I have'nt really found a good challenging question to put to the resident sages yet, but I am looking, <ebil grin>.

    Enjoy wearing your kilt, as we all do, and welcome abourd.

    ** ponders silently, does wollen tweed come in a paisley pattern? ANd if it did.......????***
