    My new jacket conversion and kids kilts

    Here I am debuting my new jacket conversion at the Stone Mountain Games this year. I arrived too late for the X Marks gathering (I was up late finishing the kilts I made for my stepson and nephew) so was unable to meet most of you, I did meet Matt Newsome though.

    It was my first go at a jacket conversion and I think it turned out pretty good. I think the sleeves may need to be let out just a tad. This was the kids first time kilted. My stepson is a MacLean and my nephew is a Wilson (sept of Gunn). His kilt kept getting askew throughout the day, what with kids being kids and running around and all, and I was constantly reminding him to align the center front stripe. I just noticed his was out of sorts again in this picture.
