This kilt was made with the customer's own fabric. While not a tartan in the strictest sense, it makes a beautiful kilt. The colors are in a tradiltional Scottish colorway, usually called "weathered", where the blues turn to slate, the greens to khaki or olive, and the reds become a soft cranberry. Beautiful!

Smith

An interesting view of the inside of a kilt in work. The upper part of the pleats is graded away to eliminate bulk, so the kilt will fit smoothly to the body. The raw edges will be covered with interfacing for stability and then lined.

This client chose to have his kilt pleated to stripe. Having a choice of "centers"; he chose the white in the burgundy for the pleat face. It is a beautiful kilt.

Weir

This kilt is actually pleated to stripe. It is such a gorgeous tartan, I had to show the front panel so the sett is easily seen (it was pleated to stripe). Weir tartan, modern colors. It may look purple on your monitor, but it is truly a deep ultramarine blue. Lovely!

Tweed Kilt

Unusual in the US, I enjoyed making this special kilt. This is a very soft wool. It's fun to make something different.

A rare tartan, my client found it. I didn't know it was available! He chose to have it pleated to the white overstripe, which is an excellent choice. Very purple.
