    I see leaves changing colors and looking at that tartan, I can almost smell the fall in WI.

    I see some nice Wilsons colours where the green might be a little faded, but otherwise very well preserved. I see a hem at the closest side. The tartan is very reminiscent of MacDonald of Glenaladale.

    It is indeed reminiscent of the MacDonald of Glenaladale.

    I see the stitched bottom edge easily enough but something else bothers me. Is it just an artifact of photography or is this piece of tartan not equal in its warp and weft setts, as it appears that there are rectangles running from bottom to top of the piece instead of squares, particularly in the yellow/faded green sections?
