the kilt is done

My Beloved likes wearing kilts.  He has worn a Utility Kilt for a while now.  He has had three but then his wheight changed and some wore different then others.

I got to looking on line and said I would give it a go.  

Four and half yards of twill later.  Two spools of thread.  Chalk. Rulers. Measuring tapes.  Lots of straight pins and saftey pins.  Having my Beloved read me the directions out loud because I was so tired I could not make head or tails of them.

Being read a loud to so we can spend time together as I sew.  Because I did a bit more stitching then was called for.

A kilt is made.  I would already change a few things but I thought I give it a go first following the directions I found online.  

But, all said, I do believe it was a success.  By the end of the weekend it was crumpled  and wrinkled from wear.  Covered in fuzzies and baby drool from playing on the floor with the Smallest Short Person.

And I have aleady been asked for another.
