    Taran ID

    This is a new one to me, anyone any ideas? It has elements of the various 'Spirit of' and 'Heritage of' type tartans.

    Humm...

    Looks to me a bit like the MacFugglie Ancient Tartan.

    Ah, so. I can see the colours of the heather in September bloom, the grey of the skies at all seasons, a red spray for the blood of the MacFugglie Mor and black for the sadness that has come on us all. *sigh*

    Edit: Oh, I forgot: white for the lightening that struck MacFugglie *sigh* *sigh*

    I was seeking colour palettes as the key, but now wonder it it's not an artistic colouring of a usually quite diff coloured sett

    I think it's possibly a rip off of one of the 'Spirit of' and 'Heritage of' type tartans rather than a colour change on an other sett. Still digging.
