House of Tartan Advice Needed

**Ayin McFye** · 6th June 07, 10:47 AM

Greetings everyone. I am just doing some research on House of Tartan before I consider making a purchase there. I am interested in designing my own tartan and then registering it in the fairly near future. I wanted to know if anyone has ever done this, and if you have, what method did you take and who did you use. I know the process that is needed to actually register a tartan, I just would like to know what website you used.

If you did use House of Tartan's website did you have a good experience both with the quality of the kilt, as well as the price you paid. A group of us are actually going to buy in bulk and probably buy around 30 yards or more.

Any input you might have would be greatly appreciated as I have come to respect most of your opinions in the last couple months. Thanks!

send Matt Newsome a PM or email. He registered the Xmarks tartan and can likely help you out.

Matt designed the Sackett tartan for me, a couple others for other members here, and helped with the Fitzsimmons tartan as well. A quick search for "tartan design service" should turn up a few threads.
And if I remember right, Matt is less expensive than House of Tartan. Not cheaper, but less expensive - more service for a lower price.
I would definitely get in touch with Matt.
