    My very own Kilt apron!!!

    Well, as a gift for Christmas and Valentine's day my Mother-in-law made me my very own Kilt apron for when I am doing woodworking!!!
    It's a bright red canvas duck and it is fantastic.

    The front has a convenient pocket and it actually has a fold out part so you can make it even longer, covering over the ribs if need be.
    She's considering making some for sale. I'd buy it, but I DON'T HAVE TO!
    Oooh, I'm happy.
    Here are a few pictures of it.

    Well that's fantastic. Great for the workshoppe or the trenches (were it not for the colour)! Tell your mother-in-law to rock on.

    It looks wonderful, and of course even more wonderful because she made it for you

    (and how darling, your sweet new pup is in almost every photo, standing faithfully by your side)

    Lucky you Arlen!

    I think it's a BRILLIANT idea that would be very useful indeed especially for the constantly kilted among us.
