    Tartan of the Month - May 12: What do you see?

    There's actually still some things to devine from April's images but I'll finalise those with a paper shortly.

    Something for the best month of the year! Let's have your thoughts, RFIs etc.

    It looks like a joined plaid for a great kilt with solid color selvages.
