    Dani Mac....when you say you ""pleated to the Ian", were you using the interesting pleating diagram on the far left end of the blackboard? It must have been rather challenging!

    Quite a number of kilts in the end, Grae. I tried taking a couple of snaps of the pink pussycat material, not really a success. hhastings gave me some to bring home for when I get to that stage with the kilts I am making.

    Kingussie...sorry, it's where my Macpherson ancestors hail from and where some relatives still live. A very special place for me.

    Cheers,

    Barb & Steve!

    Thank you very much for making Kilt Kamp 2013 possible! I had a blast and I learned SO much! I really appreciate the calculator method for figuring out pleat widths, Dani. Cheers!

    Band competition season isn't done yet, but once it's over and I can finish my kilt, I'll take pictures and post them. Also, a deep debt of gratitude to Barb's husband, Dave for everything he did to make things happen. You're a real trooper, Dave!, and we ALL appreciated your help. The BBQs were special and meant a lot.

    Hows come we never played our big squeaky toys together, Barb? I guess it'll have to be Kilt Kamp 2015, right? I'm already looking forward to it.

    Slàinte!,

    Jon

    Hi Jon!

    Yes - definitely let's play our big squeaky toys together at KK 2015, if not at 2014. Are you coming to Steve's next summer? I've already poked Okiwen to get playing and bring his pipes.

    BTW! We took second at the Syracuse Games on Saturday in Grade 4! On to Hunter next Sunday.

    Barb where can one find out about Kilt Kamp?
    Is there someone to sign up, so at least I can get a reminder, and not realize I've missed it.... ;)

    I have your book, but I've not been tempted to start on my own, as I'm sure I'd only frustrate myself.
    Would rather have a bit of hands on help to start.

    Cheers
