I just picked up a Maple Leaf (Batleys) 5-yd from Rocky. I LOVE the colors. It is, as you say, very autumnal (there, I used it too, we can punch each other). It is not terribly bright colored, more subdued. I like it a lot. To my eyes, the one in your OP is brighter than mine appears in person. Could be just the monitor or it could be the difference in the mill used to make the tartan.
