    Cotton is always shrinking. You wash it, it shrinks. You wear it, it shrinks. You iron it, it shrinks. There is no controlling the stuff. You just have to accept that it will look the best when you take it out of the box or are finished making it. From then on, it is shrinking.

    Joe,

    Why don't you stop into the shop with your fabric.

    Or don't you remember that I offered to help you make this Kilt.

    Once we see the fabric we can tell its content and better asses how best to work with it.

    You can also take a look at the Camo Kilts in the shop, see what I have done and see what has worked and what has not worked in the past.

    We can then lay out your Kilt on my table and let you see what it looks like pleated different ways.

    I wear the kilt because:
    Swish + Swagger = Swoon.

    Hey, The Kilt World is the only place you can asses another man's pleated asses without getting slapped.
