63. A great kilt!

Dec 2020

My son in law was a re-enactor at ren faires, with a Scottish group. (where he and my daughter met!) They always wore a great kilt vs what they called 'Lee press on kilts' a reference to Lee press on fake fingernails. They looked down on the pre made kind of kilts for what they were doing. An impressive amount of fabric goes into those things.
