    Just make sure that, when you have the tartan woven, that you specify to the mill the approximate sett size that you'd like to have. You won't have complete freedom, but, particularly if the tartan is relatively simple, you should be able to ask them to scale the tartan so that the sett size is reasonable for kilting. It's perfectly possible to design and weave a piece of tartan that's impossible to make a decent kilt out of, no matter how good your kiltmaker is! You don't want to wind up in that boat.
