    These days, the first could be like playing with fire. As for the latter, interesting combination......Tartan & Americana.

    As well as the officially sanctioned state tartans are, you aware of the state seal tartans created by the folks at USA Kilts,which would make yours the 3rd set of state tartans.

    Yes, I stumbled across the State Seal Tartans just recently. Interesting idea - until you take a look at the state seals. If you thought state flags need an upgrade...

    P.S. I wanted to see what Nebraska's state seal tartan looks like. (Nebraska's flag, which features the state seal, is currently judged worst in the nation.) It looks like the State Seal Tartans collection doesn't include Nebraska. In fact, it apparently consists of just nine designs.
