Hmmmm...

And Hmmm... again

Part of me likes it, but I don't think it's actually tartan, for one thing (if I recall correctly, tartan is a subset of plaid, and the kilt isn't actually plaid).

When I go out in public, I tend to try to reinforce the concept of being kilted (as opposed to cross-dressing) by always wearing a sporran and hose, and all of my kilts are either tartan or plain. Having a non-plaid pattern (even if it is repeating) would (in my opinion) really detract from the concept of being kilted as opposed to just wearing a cute skirt.

My personal opinion (for what it's worth) is that it doesn't say "kilt" to me. It says "gender-nonspecific pleated skirt".

However, the hunt for something is worthwhile: even though I'm blue-eyed, I've actually have more Native American genes in me than any other ethnic group my family's been able to identify. We'll have to keep an eye out for something.

Maybe at some point come up with a tartan based on the New Mexico state flag?
