Masai
A friend of mine got back from a dig in Kenya awhile ago and made friends with the local Masai. He showed me a blanket he got from them, and I joked he should make a kilt out of it. Well, he's not going to cut up the blanket, but he's actaully interested in the kilt idea. Here are some Masai tartans:
Some of them look downright Scottish! Who knows, maybe this will work out.

Matt Newsome had a blog entry about this, but I can't find it at the moment ...
I am easily moved for sympathy for dogs, far more so than for humans, because dogs do not understand. There is no way to explain that you will return, that the vet will make it all better, that they cannot go shooting today because that is not what today is about. They cannot work out that their misery is finite and will some time end, and so their misery is magnified.

Those all look really good, and would all make a really good looking kilt.

Thanks, Scott - I knew I had seen them there.
And there was also this thread: http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/j...x.html?t=14460

Thing is...are they Tartans or checked cloth. Don't forget tartan is about the weave/pattern.
