    New fraternity tartan... what now?

    Just last week my fraternity adopted a national tartan for our fraternity! We are in the process of getting the tartan registered.

    Was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to best have the tartan woven and produced as several members have already expressed interest in having numerous items including kilts made in the tartan.

    Thanks in advance.

    It's easy. Just contact one or more of the major weavers and get some quotes.

    Too bad for me--I thought it might have been Kappa Sigma. Nice tartan!

    I was disappointed that it wasn't Alpha Kappa Psi. But then, ours would have to incorporate our colors of blue and gold.
