    By my estimates, it would take somewhere around 2-3 yards of tartan to run the length of a sash. If you already have the tartan, you could find a pattern online or at a local fabric store. If you don't have it yet, it my be worth your while buying a finished one. Good tartan runs a wide array of prices. For the tartan you are looking for, I found it for around $75-85 USD/yrd. Aside from the expense, there is also the tedium of hand fringing the ends. I found a made to order sash offered in Wallace Dress Blue for about $116 USD online. But that doesn't count shipping. But then again, I'm lazy. So what seems like a good idea to me, might not to you.
    Keep your rings charged, pleats in the back, and stay geeky!
