    Matt it's sad to hear and unfortunatly there is a customer that is not happy with his experience with STA even though you did every thing possible. i recall when you made my kilt in MacLachlan ancient we had a discussion over which colour garters. In my case the ancient red was too orange and the modern red was too red. Fortunately I have both and now I can wear the hue that matches my mood that day. I hope that the customer can look beyond the colour shades and see that he as a one of a kind work of kilted art.

    Thanks Grant. And that's the thing, I inspected the kilt before I sent it out and it's really a great kilt! The tartan is lovely, the kilt is very well made. It's one anyone would be proud to wear.

    BTW, I assume you meant STM, not STA, above.

    You Sir, are correct, and when I do eventually make it to the Scottish Tartans Museum I'll not make that mistake so easily.
