    My first (sort of) Mini-kilt

    First mini-kilt that came out good anyway.

    My sons girlfriend wanted a mini-kilt.
    I made one last month for her out of some denim I had laying around.
    It turned out it was stretch denim and turned out terrible.
    I think we are going to burn it as a sacrifice to the Kilt Gods.

    Anyway, this is the sweet girl that wrote the article in the local paper about me.
    If you missed it, it is in this thread:
    http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/f...x.html?t=38062

    Anyway, I made her a camo mini-kilt today and it turned out great.
    She is at a meeting right now, but when she gets home I will post some pictures of her wearing it.

    and a close up of the material.
    Notice the butterflies in the print.

    That looks great and the fabric is so appropriate for a young lady!

    [I saw some fabric like that and was already at the cutting table when the clerk pointed out that the design was butterflies. I hadn't realized that--it just looked abstract to me. I'm glad that she hadn't put scissors to fabric yet!]

    And as promised, here are pictures of her wearing it.







    She loves it and I am very happy with how it turned out.

    Talking Nigh-tbird

    Nice work, nice pics and nice young lady.

    But how comes you always shoot pictures in the dark (night)?

    Very fetching! Nice job, and the butterfly camo material is a great idea!
