At this moment this is the next one I plan to get (not sure how soon):
Casual USAK in Blackwatch (I really want a tartan)
Beyond that (in no particular order):
Heather Grey UK Mocker
Lined PK (Deim maybe?)
TFCK Pinstripe Suit
Twead Suit
Leather (Not sure from were)
X Marks Tartan (8 yds would be nice, pleated to the Sett)
A Box pleat from Matt Newsome
Irish National (or similar)
A SWK or 3 (once I get down to a weight were I get buy off the rack)
I also want a handsewn 8 yd heavyweight traditional once I figure out more of my family history (right now its looking like one of the Murrays)

The two in my signature are most likely the next ones:
Edwards of Wales from USAK
X-Marks (sewer TBA)
Aside from those, I'm jonesing hard for:
TFCK Pinstripe Kilt Suit
UK Leather
I purchased Barb's book for my mother (aren't I a great son! LOL). She teaches sewing/quilting classes so she may make the X-Marks for me. She's doing a test run now to see how it goes.

X Marks by Matt (definite)
Something in my father's tartan (definite, but have to design it first ...)
PK (once Jeff is making them again)
A true military "Tank" (WPG, surplus, used - I'm not sure yet, but before this winter ends or before next winter starts)

In no particular order other than as I think of them:
Walker (Mom is a Walker)
MacDougell
MacGreggor
Stewart of Appin
Army
Colorado
Black Watch
X Marks (of course)
Canvas which will be the first one I make
That a good enough list to get in trouble with the DW

If my plastic ever cools...
A Gillis tartan (hard to find, not Gillies, but Gillis) to honor my 3 great grandmother Mary Gillis.
Fill in some other clan tartans, Fletcher, Frazier, Smith, McMillan, Keith..
A Welsh Bowen
Maybe another leather RKilt in dark blue
Mostly wear UKs to work to avoid the sporran hassle, maybe can backfill some mockers in colors I missed or in new colors when they come out.
Probably some on the wish list I've forgotten off the top of my head.

AA,
The Campbell of Cawdor is a great looking tartan, my tank is the same tartan, I wear it as the District of Argyll Tartan to honor my three ancestral clans from the District of Argyll, Campbell, Lamont and McGregor.
What's on my list? My next kilt is going to be one of Matt's box pleats in either Ancient Lamont, McGregor or the Ultser Red tartan.
I am also considering the Brown Tartan, but It doesn't seem to be readily available in 13 or 16 oz wool. I'll have to ask Matt if somebody out there has it in stock.

additionally ..
I forgot some ... Hee hee
I have three cows-worth of black leather in the back seat of my car going local, an Anderson tartan (could be my New Yorker in place of the Highland Heather), the Scheibler plaid (Monschau, Germany - the Red House mill exclusive no longer woven), and the Caterpillar tartan I'm designing (neither Holt or Best were of Scot or Irish decent that I can find so it's MY design ...)
CT - 20 is a good round number ...

Of course, there are many others I would like to have.;-)
Along with the Xmarks tartan which I am ordering, another kilt on my priority list is the MacSporran tartan (Son of the purse) to represent my occupation as an accountant.
After that, I will probably focus on regional tartans and then start mining the names of distant ancestors.
Unless of course I decide that there really needs to be a Dove family tartan and I design one.
