Intensive/Overseas Workshops
Edinburgh Kiltmakers Academy is launching a new Kiltmaking Workshop.
These intensive workshops offer kilt enthusiasts an exclusive opportunity to be guided through the process of making one (or more, depending on ability) kilt from scratch. Including measuring, maths and marking up. Overseas applicants will be considered on receipt of skill level evidence.
The Intensive/Overseas workshop will run from 10am-5pm five days a week for 2 weeks
This is an amazing chance to learn kiltmaking at an intermediate level. This course could also be a taster to joining one of our longer courses. This could be the first step down the path of becoming a fully qualified Kiltmaker.
The Edinburgh Kiltmakers Academy is located 19-21 St.Mary's Street, just off Edinburgh's historic Royal Mile. Contact us for more information.

TRADITIONAL KILTMAKING
Until recently, kilt making methods remained the same for over a century. We are very passionate to keep this tradition alive. For those who wish to glimpse the fascinating processes involved in crafting each of our handmade kilts, we have put together a simplified guide here.
A QUALITY KILT STARTS WITH QUALITY MATERIALS...
The Edinburgh Kiltmakers Academy would not be possible without support from quality manufacturers who share our values of excellence and craftsmanship. Lochcarron of Scotland and House of Edgar both support quality kilt making by providing the academy with discounted materials.
