    I've been emailing with John Higgins of jhiggins.com about the Polaris Military tartan and the minimum order is 32 yards of double wide cloth. That's enough to make 8 kilts. I certainly can't afford to buy the whole thing myself, are there 7 others out there that are interested? I made 8 patrols on a boomer out of Holy Loch, and I NEED one of these:-)

    Why not contact kiltmakers M.A.C. Newsome, Barb Tewksbury or Kathy Lare? All three can get small-batch runs of rare tartans.

    Matt and Barb are forum members, and a number of folks here have kilts by Kathy Lare.

    Regards,

    Todd
