    Does your flic show the colors pretty true? Greys, black, red and white?

    Too bad there isn't a good way yet to reverse engineer a kilt pattern...... someday?

    No, the "white" stripe is actually a light gray. But all other colors are true.

    You can go to the Scottish Tartan Authority and using the Tartan Ferret

    http://www.tartansauthority.com/Web/...rchintroc2.asp

    and enter the color order to search for a tartan.

    What I meant was, say you have an unknown piece of tartan, and you want to find out what it is.

    But I have had less than satisfactory results using it. Maybe I just haven’t figured out the way to do it yet?

    As James said, I've had problems with the Ferret...in fact, I've never actually gotten it to load up...

    Here is the front view:



    And the pleats:



    15 pleats, 16" overapron, 25" length. I'm wearing it a little lower then I like to, but I was just excited about getting it on my body and on the web.
