First attempt for hockey kilt
Since the Sabres run into the playoffs last year, I have had an idea to make a two tone kilt. At that point thier colors were red and black so the kilt was going to have black fabric from top to about eight inches from the bottom, then a four inch red stripe and then another four inches of black. Well this year the Sabres are doing well again, and although they have changed their uniforms to a 'slug' looking thing, I have decided that I am going to create the two tone hockey kilt. I have made an x-kilt and that came out well so I thought I would try this:

The plan is to pleat the yellow the same way the blue is pleated, then sew the yellow onto the blue, this will allow for the yellow to show properly when the pleats swing.
I bought the fabric today the blue is a heavy poly cotton $4.47 per yard, the yellow is just normal poly cotton really light $3.16 per yard, so total cost of fabric was $24.50, the blue is double width so I have two cracks at that. I will try to update this thread as I complete parts of the kilt. Right now I am washing the fabric, probably don't need a picture of that.
