Indeed! Is that German Flecktarn or the Danish pattern?

Thank you for your comments.
It's the Danish pattern and the kilt is my first self-made X-kilt. The ideal garment for strolling on a hot summer day at 86°F/30°C. (my 8 yard Black Watch PV the other day was suboptimal  )
@Robert: we always enjoy ourself in France as we spend our annual vaccation at the Baie de la Somme since 2007.
Some of our fellow countrymen advised us against possible problems (to be not very welcome being German). My Kilt, however, simplifies that. I never met any antipathy against Germans in France. Far from it! Considering the auld alliance between France and Scotland, surprisingly lot of Frenchmen suddenly remembered their knowledges of English language  .
We simply love that country. (BTW - France it is a paradise for dogs and dog owners!)

Great pictures, thanks. Long time since I was last in Paris. Last time I was there my boys (who were then 7 & 10) and I, threw paper planes off the top of the Eiffel tower. I think one of them ended up in Belgium...
