pinstripe kilts...any kiltmakers on board tackled one?

There's been lots of talk about these off and on over the years. I'm wondering if any of the kilt makers here on the boards have made one? Or if any would be willing to take on the project?

Paul Henry has done some in ticking, which is pinstripe-like, I would think.

I bet the Wizard would. He's pleated to the leafe before, for goodness sake!

**Paul Henry** · 18th July 09, 01:47 PM

I have done, and would do again!

Yea, I've done it. Will you provide the fabric?

Just to be fair, I do seem to recall that paulhenry had made a kilt pleated to the polka-dot...

It all sounds very complicated to me.

Thanks Ted, yes a little complicated, but the spots were about 6 cms round so at least they were large enough to see.The complicated bit was halving the circles and then graduating each one on the pleats so they still looked like circles ( but smaller)when they joined up.... it was fun to do in the end(once I worked out the theory!)
