Have a look at

The notes read: “Designed by Phil Smith in 1995, this was the winning design of 12 entries for a tartan to be presented to the Cherokee tribe (Echota and Chickamauga are alternative names the tribe uses) by Scottish Heritage USA at Grandfather Mountain Games 1996.”
Of course, this does not state that it
was presented, nor that it
was accepted, but it is on the register.

Well, I'll be...you learn something new everyday -- many thanks, Mike, for bringing this to my attention. I have a good friend with documented Cherokee ancestry, and I know she'll be excited to see this!

Indeed Todd, I had no idea!! 
Thanks Mike! 
Now the question: has this tartan been woven, or is it a special weave.
At any rate this might have some real appeal to my son.
Thanks again!
