    Is this to flashy?

    I purchased this fabric from Fraser and Kirkbright. I think it is a beautiful and rich tartan, but I am a tad colour blind.



    Is it to flashy for a great kilt?

    Thanks
    Cheers

    Perhaps it's my monitor, but it doesn't look flashy to me at all.

    Best regards,

    Not a bit flashy. Maybe it's my monitor too, but it looks kinda muted actually.

    Absolutely! It's far too flashy for a great kilt.

    Since you will not be needing it feel free to send it to me and I will put it to good use...











    It's a handsome tartan, it will make you a fine great kilt.

    Cheers

    Agreed. Nothing flashy about it. I'd like to see it in a tailored kilt.

    It's a NICE dark green and dark red (read BURGUNDY or GARNET).
    Not flashy.

    Your color checker friends say: OK.
