    Welcome from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I don't know how much money you have, are making, or might get for Christmas, but USA Kilts from link above, have some inexpensive, but good kilts. Maybe you can ask for one specific one for Christmas. Many have started out where you are, but soon you will have a good kilt.

    DALE.

    You don't have to be Scottish to be comfortable!

    Hi KMS, welcome to the forum. There are a lot of good articles on the kilt and scottish history on Matt Newsome's web site http://albanach.org/advice.htm

    Check those out.

    Welcome Levi,

    I just got a hand sewn kilt in the Scott tartan in honor of my great great grandfather Levi Scott from New Sharon, Iowa.

    Welcome Levi from Australia. Feel fee to ask away around here, we're a friendly and (sometimes) informative lot.
    Here's a couple of links that are great for kilt patterns and making.

    I know its hard when you have not much money, but its well worth the wait to buy something decent, its will last a long time & you will be proud to wear it.

    Levi

    Welcome from Bavaria. I would second the recommendation to use the x-kilt pattern. I've not used it yet but have read it and will use when I get back to the states. Also as mentioned, there are some good low price kilts out there that can get you started. Welcome once again and enjoy the experience.

    YMOS,
    Tony
