Braveheart Tartan
Has anyone had a kilt made yet in the Braveheart tartan (the Mel Gibson variety from celtic croft)?
I'm waiting on a sample, it may be loose, and coarse, but I love the earthy colours

Hey Graham,
Don't know if this helps. Went to Google Images and put in Braveheart tartan and Braveheart kilt and got a few images of what you're waiting for mixed in with other stuff.
Looks like a lot of folks have coined the term "Braveheart" for tartans other than what was in the movie.

Well, I decided to order a kilt in this tartan, which is sold by Celtic Croft.
I got the sample (thanks rocky) and while it is coarse and very open-weave...I just LOVE the earthy colours, so I'm getting a 5 yard casual.
I'll post piccies and a review when it comes.

I'm sure you made the right decision, Graham, but if I were to chose I'd take an 8-yard kilt since the material is a little lighter.
Andrew.

I agree with you Andrew, but the cost of the wool is quite high and I wanted to keep the cost down.
