    Lovely shades and so much nicer that the original ones IMO.

    I was told that the shades were determined by the weaver (HoE) based on the 'best available knowledge they had of the registered tartan'. While I don't exactly know what that means, it sounds good and so does the cloth look good. The photo seems close to how the tartan image appears on the SRT. Kilt and cloth should start the trip across the pond today.

    AB Modern made its way onto the floor of the AB Legislature on 2 Mar 17 during the Speech from the Throne ceremonies. I feel the project has come to its successful conclusion.
    One other kilt was delivered and 8m of the cloth made its way into the hands of another. I can point to the cloth source if anyone is interested, just send a PM.
