Muted MacPherson casual by B&S

I've not seen that MacPherson tartan before that I remember. I really like it, and you look terrific in it. The colors of the tartan make me wonder how a brown sporran might look (just wondering, can't be sure I would prefer it). But back to the tartan. MacPhersons from the different mills vary so widely, and the hunting, red, ancient, and muted are all so different. I wonder why the Chief choses the hunting when he could have the lovelier one like you show here? I am assuming you have seen the pictures of Cluny posted here last year in a thread about Chiefs taken by Thistledown at the Clan Chattan Band of Union resigning. You can see more at the Clan Chattan web site.

I don't, but I'll have to ask my aunt when I see her next. That'd be a wonderful way to honor her memory. Thanks greatly for the suggestion.

Very smart!

I am planning on making kilts for my brothers, nephews, and cousins from the MacPherson muted. I can't wait to see how they turn out. Love the muted though, it tones down the red!
