X Marks Tartan run 2

[Southern Breeze]

I'm definitley intrested. Put me down for 8 yards.

[davedove]

I was just wondering. Was the tartan ever registered?

[possingk]

Put me down for at least 2 meters, depending on when the order goes in I may go up to 4 meters.

I am guessing right now we are just in the planning stages, and soon we will have a place on your site to purchase it again.

Steve once again thanks for doing this.

Dave asked:

I submitted the paperwork to the Scottish Tartans Authority some time ago, and in October I gave them a cutting off of the cloth that was originally ordered, so they have it in their records.

It does not show up on their web site as of yet, but I think they only update the site every so often. Hopefully it will show up in their next update.

Aye,

Okay, so if I wanted an 8 yard kilt it would be 8 yards for the kilt and another yard for plaid and flashes.

Steve, thanks for letting me know how much I'd need for plaid and flashes.

But the real meaning of my question was, how many meters does that work out to?

[The Wizard of BC]

As a VERY rough estimate a meter is just a bit bigger than a yard.
Yard = 36"
Meter = 39"

Your going to order yards but you will get meters. which is like a bonus. A little more than you asked for.


And because the fabric is double wide you only need to order 4 meters for an 8 meter kilt.

[Aggie]

If you get enough takers I'd go for 4 meters.

Glassman,

With respect, I would suggest that instead of taking Steve's valuable time to do your imperial/metric conversions for you, you make use of any of the several conversion websites that are freely available to us all.

The best of these, to my mind, is at:
