Here it is: Kilt No.67
Yes folks, I collected No.67 on Sunday. From Geoffrey (Tailor) in Edinburgh, it is a full 8 yarder, 16oz strome in the Northumberland or Shepherd or Falkirk tartan and, like all my kilts from Geoffrey (Tailor) and TFCK, it is a gem. Once the weather cools down a little, I'll be giving it a good run for its money.
Here are 'front and 'back' images:

That has the smallest pattern I have ever seen. Congratulation Ham! It looks great.

Very nice. I too shall own a strome kilt some day.
That reminds me of the "estate tweed" patterns! Looks sharp though.

Great looking kilt, Hamish!
That certainly is a unique looking tartan. From a distance I might mistake it, at first, for a houndstooth check pattern.
I see that in the "back" image you've answered that old advertising line, "Aren't you glad you use Dial?" :rolleyes:

A very unusual tartan, a beautiful kilt and a handsome man - it just doesn't get much better. Congratulations Hamish!

Great looking kilt! I've only seen pics of the tartan, now I know what it looks like made into a kilt.

The kilt looks great. The video is freaky on a monitor as the tartan gets pixilated and kind of like a kaleidoscope effect until it gets close. O'Neille
Cowards die many times before their deaths; the valiant never taste of death but once. Of all the wonders I yet have heard, it seems to me most strange that men should fear; seeing that death, a necessary end, will come when it will come. --William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar
