Move over Mel Gibson - kilt #25 is a Braveheart!
Having won the kilt on ebay only a couple of weeks ago I watched the movie on DVD again yesterday.
And this morning the postman knocked on my door! 
I opened the parcel and started taking the photographs!
Here is the front apron with the added nice surprise of matching flashes which were not mentioned in the auction or expected!
And from the rear, still with the basting stitches.

Cymru, Yr Alban, Iwerddon, Cernyw, Ynys Manau a Lydaw am byth! Yng Nghiltiau Ynghyd!
(Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Cornwall, Isle of Man and Brittany forever - united in the Kilts!)[/SIZE][/COLOR][/B]

I put it on to try it - it fitted perfectly and took this mirror shot of the pleats with the stitches still in place before removing them.
Then took it off to capture some details.

You can see how deep the pleats are even with the basting stitches still in place.
Fringe detail.

More details.
The welcome, but unexpected, flashes.

Proof (as if it were needed! ) that I am a Braveheart on the label!
The flashes in place on the hose.

Wow, that is beautiful. That coarse, heavy material is so wonderful. Be sure to post some more photos without the stitches!

Okay...but remember what happened to Mel at the end of the movie...
Would that be one of the bobilishious kilts, by any chance, Trefor?
Best

Time to do some posing with the kilt using tripod and timer - sorry this one is slightly out of focus.
Side view - without the belt!

Rear view showing the pleating to the sett.
Side view using a bench as a step - I was so excited I had quite forgotten I was wearing slippers!

Front view using the step and now belted and sporraned.
Another rear view - think I didn't use flash on this one.
