    Birthday Tartan

    My birthday is coming up. Help me select a tartan material to make a kilt from. Here is my "short list" (not in any order):

    Chattan Ancient
    MacPherson Weathered
    Isle of Sky
    Wallace
    Missouri state tartan (ok, probably doesn't exists)
    Black watch

    Please let me know if you have other suggestions.

    Thanks,
    Wallace Catanach, Kiltmaker

    A day without killting is like a day without sunshine.

    Not at this time, but some of us are working on it.

    Isle of Skye. [Is there really any question?]
    .
    The obscure we see eventually. The completely obvious, it seems, takes longer.

    My two choices would be MacPherson Weathered or Isle of Skye.

    My vote goes to IoS.
    I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear

    My vote goes to either Isle of Skye or Chattan ancient.

    Since I'm hunting an Isle of Skye, I have to go for that! One of the nicest tartans in my opinion.
