You know, if you are wanting a tartan that needs to be custom woven, but don't want to spend a fortune, you might really want to consider a 4 yard box pleated kilt.

I don't mean to sound like I'm advertising for myself, but I do get a lot of interest in my kilts from folks who want tartans not normally available. Having a 4 yard kilt rather than an 8 yard kilt cuts the cost of the cloth in half.

My standard price for an average sized man in a custom woven tartan is $480. That's less than what you'll pay for a nice quality 8 yard kilt in a readily avaialbe tartan. And this is for heavy weight worsted wool kilting cloth woven in Scotland.

If you are interested, link's in the sig file. I'll be glad to help.
