    Splinty.Next time you might want to try one in Tweed.I'm working on one now.
    Tweed holds a pleat a lot better than cotton,and its very soft and comfy and the cost is not a lot more than cotton if you shop around.
    The tweed i'm using is four yards double width that gives me a full eight yards,and i paid under twenty bucks for it from Hobby Lobby.
    Yes, Hobby Lobby does sale fabric if you guys did'nt know that.

    Here is a shot of the Tweed fabric I am using.
    The darker shade to the upper corner reflects the true color of the fabric.
    My digital tends to brighten the shot a bit.

    Will post a pic in another thread when I complete the kilt.
