    Just for that remark----

    Let's see, you all sent me almost $6,000.00.

    There is a kilt night on Friday.

    OOPS!

    Well, just dang. Steve, I sent you an email with my preference. For the rest of you, I have no need of the fabric until the middle of June, so a reweave in May is not a bad thing for me.

    Steve,
    If I remember right the fabric is 60 inches correct? Even at 30 inches there will be some wiggle room to match the sett. Is it going to be that big of a deal in end? I don't think there are many around that have to have a 27-30 inch width kilt.

    Steve, no good deed (yours, in this case) goes unpunished. I was planning to sit on the tartan for a while, maybe wear my 4 yards as a great kilt until I decide what kind of kilt to have made with it. So if it turns out that others' plans are nearer in time, I will put myself down on the list for the re-weave. Don't you think the Navy would end up too dark?

    Thank you for the update Steve. To reiterate my choice, I can live with a single width, but I can also wait until the reweave!

    As I said before, and I think I can safely speak for all, We truly appreciate the burden you originally took on, we completely commiserate with the difficulty this moderate setback has added, and we are grateful for all your efforts on our behalf.

    Anyone who disagrees can go suck on a lemon.

    Since we can't tell what kind of trauma occurred to
    the fabric, I'm hesitant to accept any of it. It could
    have stresses that aren't immediately visible, but will
    cause the fabric to degrade prematurely or unevenly.
    I will wait for a re-weave and get the first rate
    material (in the proper colors) that I paid for.

    By the way, Steve, I only found out about this
    after searching for any information on the weaving
    status. I never received a private message or
    email. Maybe you need to update your mailing
    list. This may also be why you didn't receive
    many replies.
