The Tartan Herald

For those who are members of the Scottish Tartans Authority, check in the Member's Area and go to the November issue of the Tartan Herald.

The Tartan Herald is the monthly newsletter of the Scottish Tartans Authority.

Amongst many articles centered around the tartan you will find a beautiful article on our Lady Chrystel intitled : «*Kiltmaking in the French Alps*».





Best,

Robert

Robert, Thank you for posting the picture of "Lady Chrystel". We always enjoys seeing her and her work! That is a grand Tartan she has laid out there!

A splendid article indeed, Robert. Congratulations to Lady Chrystel (and her devoted Manager/PR Officer) for the fully justified publicity.

I await details of the forthcoming Norman (Normandie) tartan with interest as I have been thinking of adding one of the existing ones to my lengthening 'Wants List' - now I'll wait to see the new one first.

Take care,
Ham.

For those who aren't members of the Scottish Tartans Authority and couldn't get to red the article, Brian Wilton gave us permission to reproduce it on Lady Chrystel's website ! Here is the link:
