What are your plans?
Yes - a box-pleated kilt (uses less material). My friend who commissioned me to make it, lives in Florida now and wants it to be as light as possible because of the weather. He told of me of the beartartan.com website. But since he actually wanted a lightweight one, I asked Steve (The Wizard of BC) if he could order it in PV. It's not currently available in PV. With copyright and all, I'm glad that Chris is providing fabric yardage now, in heavyweight wool.
If there's enough remaining material, I meant to make the second kilt for myself (mm, mmm . Although I had asked that same friend if he'd be able to find another person who might be interested in a second box kilt. **Perhaps you, Aldisimo (and others) can talk about combining forces to make something possible** Being from AZ and TX, a box kilt would be more appropriate for your kind of weather. Send me a PM, let's talk. It would be an honor if you (and others) ask me to create a kilt for you with the Bear Tartan.
It would be awesome if I had the means to get another yardage of it so I can create a double-box pleat of the Bear Tartan. That would be oh so nice.
