🧵 This box-pleated kilt was an absolute beast.

This kilt belonged to a young pipe band member and was sent in by a returning customer. The alteration included reshaping the kilt to her measurements, adjusting the waistband so the tartan matched correctly, and letting down the hem for a little extra length.

✨ Small details. Big difference.

Yesterday’s kilt, fully repaired.

Despite major hidden damage and previous repairs, I was able to preserve the centre apron and restore the kilt to a wearable condition.

I haven’t been very present on social media lately simply because I’ve been working 7 days a week to finish orders on time ✂️

This summer turned out much busier than I ever expected (something I definitely wasn’t prepared for!), and for that I’m incredibly grateful. Thank you for keeping me busy ❤️

I’m still here just surrounded by kilts, alterations, repairs, restorations, and steam pressing 😊

Have a beautiful weekend, especially if you’re enjoying the sunshine here in Scotland ☀️
