Newbie question about finding a tartan

[rdjmchris]

Not sure if this is the right spot, so mods move it where it needs to go.

I am thinking about my second kilt (I know, I just got my first one, but I love it and want more) and I was looking at getting it in the 7th Cavalry Regiment tartan (since I went to combat with them). Does anyone know where I can get a kilt made in this particular pattern?

I know I could probably search every kiltmaker's website, but I would rather glean the knowledge from ya'll instead.

Thanks,
Chris

The 7th Cavalry Association sells it on their web site:

And, you can always talk to our own Matt Newsome or Barb T. to see about getting a special order.

Since you're in California you might consider contacting the Celtic Craft Centre in Palm Springs. They make wonderful kilts.
