    presley tartan...

    Jimmy,

    Does the Presley tartan remind you a wee bit of the Cape Breton tartan?

    Cheers,

    Todd

    Absolutely it does! The Cape Breton kilt that I have is one of my favorites... partially due to the fact that it's one of Bear's best works. That tartan just looks UNREAL when it's pleated right.

    I know that the Presely of Lonmay resembles a "dress" tartan, but it's not technically one. Since I can use a lighter-color tartan, this will just have to do the trick.

    Cape Breton & Presley...

    When I saw the image in your message, Jimmy, my mind immediately went to the Cape Breton tartan.

    I like the Presley as well -- it has a nice "balance" to it -- colours go well together.

    Cheers,

    T.

    I'm sorry guys, but this whole thread is making me think of a "Blue Suede Kilt", and I really don't want to step on that

    Donald, where's yer troosers?

    The late great Scottish singer Andy Stewart did a version of his famous song "Donald, where's yer troosers" in which he has "Elvis" sing the first verse for "more international appeal" of the song! :mrgreen:

    Andy Stewart is a stitch, especially "The Rumour"!

    Glen,

    If someone is stepping on your Blue Suede Kilt, you have either drank too much or your kilt is a wee bit too long.
