February - Tartan of the Month

[figheadair]

What do you guys fancy - easy, medium or hard?

[xman]

I'm going to vote easy, just 'cuz I'm so stupid.

X, as you were the only one to answer, you win

Here's something that shouldn't be too difficult.

Fighadair - and this one shouldn't be too difficult!!! Ok, I'm trying to keep up...

Nice one, Peter! First time I've seen a photo of the original piece.

One of the MacMillans?

Although it reminds me of the Buchanan and MacMillan Old tartans I can't help looking at it and wondering if the yellow wasn't once green and the salmon pink wasn't once red. I see the herringbone selvedge. I like it. It looks like it has been carefully hemmed in the last picture and a loop sewn in at one of the corners. Makes me think it wants a hook on an adjacent corner.

Yellow? X I think your monitor needs adjusting. Loop, what loop?

Yellow? X I think your monitor needs adjusting.

I've always believed tennis balls are yellow and everybody insists they're green. Probably not my monitor. Probably my brain.

Loop, what loop?

There's something sewn into the top left corner of the last picture.

And that "loop" is embroidered initials. it appears to be I C or L C perhaps.
