    I think we'd agreed that the weave lines go one way simply due to manufacturing errors on the back side.

    There is no right/wrong side per se.

    And as celtic cowboy rightly mentioned, im sure the original kilt wearers/weavers wore their garments not precisely thinking about whether the fabric was right/wrong side out when laying on the ground pleating/folding their great kilts, hehe

    good looking material by the way, shame we dont have JoAnne in the Louisville Metro area, the one large fabric store closed a few weeks ago (Baer's) and Hancock Fabrics doesnt carry anything worth mentioning

    Not my lawn, not my cup. My yard is clean a nice, although my some people in our park ask when we are going to take down our Halloween stuff(One "Witches Welcome" sign in the yard). Just wanted to get a quick pic.

    hey that's super!

    maybe I can encourage you enough to try your hand at making a mil box pleated next?

    maybe even using the same tartan you used for this one, as it is VERY handsome.

    good on ya!
