Holyrood would be another possibility...

David is quite correct; Matt is our man for this one.

Hmmm...we have the official papal colors...yellow and white;
we have the colors of the liturgical year...green, violet (purple), red, white, and two days of "rose" thrown in there for good measure (one in Advent and one in Lent)...if there isn't a Catholic tartan, per se, we certainly have lots of options for the design!!

Such a tartan could be used by a number of liturgical churches, including my own Anglican branch of Christendom. (of course, we use Sarum blue for Advent these days!)

Lovely idea!

But who could approve such a tartan? The World Council of Churches?

The Clergy Tartan covers only Priests and Ministers and is not allied to any particular denomination. Perhaps there should be a corresponding Laity Tartan that is again not allied?

But how to get agreement, aye there's the rub!
