    Need help with tartan id

    Try as I might, I can't find the link which stated what the following tartan is.

    http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/i...light=daughter

    It's the kilt that Barb T.'s daughter is wearing. I thought it was Alaska?

    Also, if anyone knows who may have some of that material, I'd greatly appreciate that info as well.

    Thanks!
    Mike

    woops, thanks for being moved to the correct forum, mods! Not only can I not find the name of the tartan, I can't place the thread in the right forum.

    Sorry!

    It's the Antarctica tartan, I belive. Penguins, not polar bears.

    Wow, thanks for the quick replies!

    Maybe one day I can take a trip there, and then I'd have a reason to invest in that beautiful tartan.

    Was watching An Inconvenient Truth today for the first time. About scientists warnings of global warming using the Artic and Antartica as examples.

    Perhaps the kilt can be worn as a conversation starter for that...if survival of the species is not too political....

    Regardless of why its worn its a beautiful tartan and on my wish list.

    You just had to make me look at a Barb. T kilt again, didn't you?
    I'm already looking for a second job just to sort out things as it is!


    Seriously, that is a very nice kilt.
