My first kilt was 7 yards of Dress MacLeod bought for my mother's maternal grandfather, hand pleated and worn as a great kilt. It is semi moth-eaten now, but still sees action during Steeler games ("the terrible tartan"). Next I bought 7-8 yds of modern blackwatch & another that is mostly grey & unidentifiable that served as great kilts when non-clan specific kilts were needed (reenactments, etc...). I then picked up some lengths of MacDonald & MacLaren tartan that are too small to make proper great kilts, but I wanted to have examples from the paternal side of my family. I recently picked up a MacDonald of the Isles from e-bay that had the right sett, but was of a strange muted color that appealed to me for some perverse reason (when I pull up MacD. of the Isles hunting on my tartan generator and set the "mute" function up to 3 it matches the picture pretty well). I haven't recieved it yet, but when I do I'll try and post some pics and see if anyone has ever seen this particular shade. Finding matching accessories is going to be a nightmare.
