A little background. Since I'm doing research on the kilt fabric I want for my wedding (Stewart Hunting Modern) I already have or am in the process of ordering some swatches. Then I decided to make this practical necessity into a gift. My mom is an avid tartan junkie, but almost exclusively for Stewart tartans since that is her family. I looked around and am going to order several additional swatches from scotweb that represents the best of the heavy weight kilt fabrics IMO in the various Stewart tartans from HoE, Lochc, ect. Since my fiance doesn't care THAT much about the various patterns can't really get her opinion if this is a suitable Christmas gift. What does the rabble think?

I'm trying to find a fabric sample book to put them in (to use as a coffee table book). But am so far not having luck. I have seen a few leather bound sample books at some tailor shops that used to look nice. Anyone have ideas for finding an empty book, or even one with other tartans?

I like the Idea of giving my mom a gift that is probably something that the rest of the family (at least the cousins we hangout with) will envy. And if anyone else likes the idea feel free, that's why I posted it.
