Antarctic Tartan
Love this kilt. Haven't done any pics of it in a while. Its woven to support the survival of Antarctica - sold by the British Antarctic Trust - or something close. Woven by Dalgliesh. Kathy Lare hand sewed mine. Love the colors and the way the pleats are sewn.

Pic is at the Glen Canyon Dam overlook along the Colorado River.

And the pleats - which flash white when I walk.

Check with Barb T. on Antarctic wear - think she made a shirt in this tartan for her husband...maybe she knows more.

Lovely kilt Ron. And if I am not mistaken that's the dam just outside Page in the background. Brings back good memories.

Great looking kilt. I'm picturing it with a pair of snowshoes and a Mad Bomber hat.

I have lusted after the Antarctic tartan ever since I spied it in the "Art of kiltmaking" book.
Blue complements brown Ron, Thanks for the pictures and a shot of warmth for me with the desert sighting.
