I’m glad to see that you have decided to make your own kilt, rather than buying one. I used 7-8 oz. 65/35 polyester/cotton twill fabric from Hancock Fabric and from http://www.sellfabric.com/servlet/StoreFront The fabric cost me around $5-$6 a yard and I used 4 yards with 12 - 2” wide knife pleats with 2” depth (each pleat uses 6” of fabric) and a 12” front apron. I have a 31” waist, 36” hips and a 21” length.

Here are my first two kilts (I have since made a black kilt also):

Here is my info on how I made inside pockets:
