Another slant would be if your local church is named after someone/thing with a tartan.
Like the local Episcopal church here is named St. David's. But I've been unsuccessful so far in getting the padre to adopt the St. David's tartan - even for a necktie or scarf...maybe one day.

unfortunately, its name is Crestview Presbyterian Church. (www.crestpres.org)
I will talk with my youth pastor and see what I can work out.

Boy, that is a tough one.
Have you considered the Ohio state tartan which has the same red, white, and blue that your church uses? Would give it a double meaning.

That was also my first thought. "Black Watch Presbyterian" could prove to be economical.

'Blackwatch Presbyterian" is a great idea, plus "Royal Stewart Fellowship Hall" . You'd never have a problem finding Tartans.

This Presbyterian is not aware of any specfic Presbyterian tartans. The Clergy tartan is worn by the clergy of all denominations.

Other appropriate tartans for a Presbyterian Church:
St. Columba
Holyrood
St. Andrew's
Douglas -- in honour of the Cameronian Regiment, originally raised from Covenanting Presbyterians
Hamilton -- in honour of Scottish Protestant martyr Patrick Hamilton
Ulster -- in honour of the Ulster-Scots, many of whom were Presbyterians
Yours aye,
