I went ahead and ordered my Kilt about a week or so ago.  The "Greene" tartan is a custom weave and will add about 6 weeks to the typical 12 to 14 weeks it takes to have a kilt made.

Good thing I'm in no great hurry for this kilt!  My sister is knitting me a pair of pipers hose, they should be really nice when finished.  My sister Jen is a very good knitter and I'm looking forward to wearing them.

Now all I need is a pair of brogues (shoes) a short sleeve oxford shirt, and a Prince Charlie jacket and I'll be ready for 2008 or 2009 piping competitions, or I could just prance around my yard in my man skirt, er, Kilt.

The kilt I'm having made is 16oz pure wool, a full 8 yards of it.  It will be woven and tailored in Scotland.  With a little luck I may have it by the end of the year!  It will cost roughly 316 pounds sterling, which is  roughly $650 US.  Yowzers!
