    Jamie,

    I have actually decided that that tartan is not the one I want. It turns out that is not an official district tartan at all. I have just ordered a kilt made by Matt Newsome in the real Carolina district tartan. Not only is it the official tartan of my birthplace but it is based on Charles II's wedding tartan (I'm a Stewart).

    The wool is a custom weave so I suspect it's going to take awhile. Matt thinks it will take 8-12 weeks to get the cloth and then the kilt will still have to be made but when it does get here I think I can safely say I'll have a very nice kilt.

    Dee - whew - I am relieved. I think you have made a good choice. Well done. With kilt buying patience is a virtue but it pays dividends in the long run.
    Best wishes
    Jamie
