    A Tweed Wish List...

    Here are a few tweeds on my wish list… for Kingussie kilts to be !


    First, this great Cairngorme Heath/Loganberry…





    Or maybe this incredible Cairngorme- Loden/Antique





    Would I be tempted by this Cairngorme Pebble/Charcoal ?




    Humm… What to speak of this absolutely gorgeous Cheviot Loden/Crag…





    Best,

    Robert

    Very beautiful.... I like the first, and intrigued by the third.. If I were a rich man and could have all the tweed kilts, my hearts' desired.. I would n'er be worried about what to wear...lol

    They look great... the last is my favourite
    It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

    Hi Robert, for my personal tastes, I really like the third one. But all of them would make a great kilt!

    Nice choices Robert. I like the first and second. Possibly the fourth (it doesn't show well on my monitor.)
