Making Your Own KiltNow that may sound like a rather bold statement, coming from a man that can barely sew on a button, so I will qualify it by adding that it is not so difficult for a person competent with a needle and thread (and perhaps a measuring tape and a good pair of scissors). Until now I must admit, I was of the opinion that only a very experienced and highly skilled professional could turn out a garment that could truly be called a kilt. Having said that I have had to change my beliefs, and having done the research I have seen the photographic evidence that proves kilts can be made by amateurs (albeit skilled amateurs). Now I personally would never in my wildest dreams consider sewing a kilt, I had mine made to measure by a very experienced firm of kilt makers, in my home town of Inverness Scotland. And I might add I am absolutely delighted with it. However I know for a fact that lots of the visitors to this web-site would like to have detailed directions on how to sew a kilt themselves, and of course because I don't know personally how to do it, I can't write that article. That's why I'm including on this page a link to another web-site which has clear and concise directions from several experienced kilt makers on how to sew the garment yourself. It has always been my intention with this web-site to give the visitors the information that they are looking for, in as clear and concise a way as is possible. And in this particular instance the only (or perhaps the best way of doing so) is to direct you to a web page which has the information that you seek. I hope you have fun sewing your own kilt, And with your permission I could feature it on this page, as an incentive to anyone else who may be toying with the idea of sewing a kilt themselves.
