    Spying on Lady Chrystel

    The two Maple Leaf tartan Double Box Pleated kilts my sweet Lady Chrystel is working on are well in progress.

    So I sneaked out on her with my camera... for you to enjoy

    The hardest thing for a kiltmaker's prince consort is to resist the temptation of having a kilt made for him in each and every tartan going through the house.




    Best,

    I never grow tired of seeing the Maple Leaf tartan, it must be a hard job being chief consort to a kilt maker, I'm sure I would never wish it on anyone.

    Thanks for the sneaked photos.

    The hard work and effort that goes into these garments are out of this world.
    Give Lady Chrystel my best wishes.

    Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.
