    PS:
    You'll want to adjust the fell line to 1/3 the length of the kilt. I believe we're all in consensus on that one. Correct me if I'm wrong, people.

    Atlanta? There's an Atlanta tartan? Where can I find it? Now I'm starting a jones for something I don't even know exists.

    beer-mon,

    i've a couple of serious things to say about this.

    1) i'm seriously impressed
    2) i'm seriously jealous
    3) i'm seriously inspired

    you undertook a daunting task. you came through unscathed. you have gained a world of knowledge and put it to use.

    folks, beer is my hero!

    great job!

    There is a Georgia state tartan that is officially approved by the state. And, to my knowledge, there is an Atlanta Pipe Band tartan, which is not the same as a City of Atlanta tartan, per se. I don't think I've heard mention of a new City of Atlanta tartan.

    Maybe someone has come up with one?

    Aye,
    Matt

    I bought remnants of the Atlanta Metropolitan Police pipe band tartan from Burnett's and Struth.

    - yeah, I sort of mismeasured my hem (well, actually, I plain did), so the fell is 3/4 of an inch too long. You can't notice so much when standing still, but when walking it is quite obvious. I may have enough internal pleat below the steeking to raise it a bit, but that project can wait...
