Hello all,

My name's Maggie and I live in the highlands of Scotland.

I am looking for some help please. What weight can regimental tartan be? I have some beautiful tartan left to me by my Dad, 10 metres of Royal Stewart. It is very heavy and thick. you could put it down as flooring covers, but it's not brushed or scratchy, just really smooth.

If this is the really heavy weight type from 60 years ago in the army I will make something for my home or can you make a kilt from this type?

I've take some pics and uploaded, apologies for the poor pics.

I'm excited about being part of your forum and have loads of stuff I want to ask and read from yourselves.

Maggie
