    Fraser Hunting Pleated to Stripe - Your Opinion Please

    I'm trying to imagin how the tarten Fraser Hunting might look pleated to stripe.

    I took The swatch sample from Bears site and assembled what I think it would look like.

    I'm considering pleat to stripe because I don't think I want the Bright blue vertical stripe that you see on the right edge of the image to dominate the entire kilt and might make an intersting flash of color when moving.

    If you have seen this tarten done to stripe before how did it look? Your input and thoughts on this tarten would be appreciated.

    I have seen the kilt pleated to the sett before, and it looks fantastic. The to the stripe example you made looks good, but I think it would look better to the sett. Just my 2 cents

    I have the Tartan to the set and it is Nice the Blue is not to bright. The brown is awsome ( there are never enough kilts with Brown as a base color)

    I think to the stripe would look cool just depends on what stripe you want it to the one you made looks decent If you pleated it to the red stripe it might be cool too.

    I thought this was pleated to the red stripe. Should the Green vertical stripe not be showing?
