I'm aware of the requirements. Unfortunately, though we have the knowledge and skills for doing living history, we're all in a point in our lives right now where we can't afford to do the things we'd have to do to get a tartan registered. In the mean time, we're keeping the design close to our collective chest, and not even mentioning where our inspirations came from, lest someone else register something too close to it, before we're ready to proceed.

And I'm sure it's worth every penny for his help, but Matt charges about a grand for tartan design and registration.
