She is, of course, also the designer of the Mighty Men tartan (in which my first kilt, now sent back to the maker for repairs, was made), so she clearly does not regard the Christmas tartan as representing Christianity as a whole, in all seasons.
In fact she has a plan on the back burner for a tartan for Christian women, distinct from Mighty Men.

Mike: Thanks for pointing me to the Mighty Men tartan. I have not seen it before, and I like both the idea and the design. It's a little bold for me, though. If I wore a kilt in it, I might find myself having to turn the other cheek, so to speak.

A former (American) football coach at the University of Colorado, Bill McCartney, founded an organization (likely) similar to Mighty Men called Promise Keepers.

I think it would be a mistake to claim that any tartan represented Christianity as a whole, but I'll be looking forward to Ina's tartan for Christian women. I might buy a few yards for my wife!
