Burns Check

That is stunning, Matt. You should send a picture of that kilt to the Burns Association of North America and the World Burns Federation. It has a certain...wait for it...panache to it!

I can't ever remember seeing a kilt in Burns check in the latter's newsletter, but that one is "the bee's knees"!

Isn't it though Todd??

Man, when I first saw this picture loading up I actually felt a little jump in the heart! (no exageration) I knew the tartan had a "Panache" to it also ;) And, I just KNEW it would make a great kilt. I should have known if anyone had a kilt in this tartan it would be Matt.

Thanks so much Matt. I absolutely agree with you on the accessories selection. My thoughts, even when I'd only seen the tartan swatch, were to emphasize the brown and green in the tartan. Matt, you've just helped me spend part of that rebate coming this Spring. We'll be talking.

Yet Lochcarron weaves the Northumberland/Shepherd tartan in 16 oz in the typical small pattern that is normally associated with that tartan. Same scale more or less as their 10 oz version of the Shepherd tartan. Go fig.

I know right? I went to the Lochcarron page after I posted this, and saw the Northumberland is indeed the "normal" size for that tartan. None-the-less, I rather like the sett enlarged a bit like in the Burns tartan. Actually, were I to get the Northumberland tartan, I wouldn't mind it being the same set size as this Burns check. But, I don't know that I'd want to pay the premium for a custom weave! lol. Ya gotta weigh the priorities I suppose.

It'll be a stunning kilt Brad.

Man oh man. The Jones for this one is gonna be BRUTAL.

Well, it won't be so bad waiting for the rebate. About the time that rolls in I should be getting my Carolina tartan kilt from Matt.
