I will also take advantage of the raffle to try to get another Newsome in my collection.
Well Louisiana winter is about as good as a Canadian summer half of the time! So box pleats are really good for me year-round. Besides, if it's too cold, I'm pulling out the Inverness cape in which case the extra kilt fabric won't really matter. :-)

Being said, I entered my $5 and am considering donating more to the Museum... I think that this is an EXCELLENT idea for the museum to raise money. I'm going to spread the word in my Caledonian Society and hopefully get a few more takers!
