    Kilt for a tall, thin dancer.

    Hello,

    I am making a kilt for a tall, thin 15 year old dancer who attends the same dance school as my daughter. Before I get going I was wondering if there are any tips from anyone who is more experienced in making kilts (this is the fourth I will have made).

    The measurements are: 26" waist, 36.5" hips and 24" from waist to knee.
    I am planning on a waist split of 14 apron, 12 pleats and a hips split of 17.5 apron and 19 pleats.

    Thanks!
    Carrie

    No worries! I just wanted to make sure there wasn't anything I needed to do for such a thin, leggy dancer. Thanks!
