    Modern blue clergy tartan

    I am looking for modern blue Clergy tartan, preferable 16 oz. The problem is that I want only one yard, and I am finding that tartan retailers want to sell a minimum of 4 yards of so. Even 3/4 yard would suffice, maybe less. Anyone have scraps lying about? Thanks for any information.

    Yeah, one yard is no problem. If you are in the US you can give us a call at the Scottish Tartans Museum; 1-866-898-1192. It's available in Lochcarron's 16 oz "rare select" Strome range of cloth, 54" wide, at $89/yd.
