Alex, your taking me completly wrong man. I'm not hitting you up at all. I'm encouraging you.
My points are directed at the original question.

"Is there a certain way to make a kilt? Do you just need the fabric and sew it like a skirt I guess? I'm not sure what it takes or what else is needed to make a kilt."

I'm very sorry if they came across as being directed at you. That was not my intent at all.

If you ever get the itch to get on the ferry just let me know and I'll have fresh coffee on when you get here. I find Kiltmakers are some of the nicest people in the world.
