Tartan/plaid on Martha Stewart

[Cynthia]

I don't normally watch Martha Stewart, but my mother-in-law emailed me to tell me she saw something about tartan was going to be on today's show.

The authors of Tartan: Romancing the Plaid were on her show. They had various tartan and plaid objects, including a beautiful gown and a cute skirt outfit. I heard something about kilt mentioned once, but I think it was in reference to the gown which had a bit of leather on it in the back (probably as a bit of support at the waist for the lovely waterfall-style train) that reminded the designer of a kilt.

Then they recovered some footstools with tartan and plaid fabric.

Just thought that was interesting!

The gal on the cover was nice lookin'. That caught my eye . But like you, I do not really keep up with Martha.

It looks like a nice book. Hardcover, neat photo... everyone in the audience got a copy of it.

But yeah, I'd have never known if my MIL hadn't told me. I watched to see what they were going to say about tartan.
