    thanks for the advice

    The 10oz is all I could get - from an ebay seller with old stock from a mill or kiltmakers up in Scotland. As it was £50 for the material I couldnt let it pass - could I!

    I think the doubling on the under apron will have to do - and I'll avoid windy nights - well maybe not! (wicked grin!)

    Good luck with your first kilt. Looking forward to seeing the photos when it's finished.

    I bought my 13oz MacBeth remnant for much the same reason, six metres of double wide for $120 was too good to pass up.
