    So much joy on this thread - and there should be!

    Here's what awaits you...



    At least Dave for sure from Kathy Lare....

    I'm finding my X Marks tartan is VERY versitile for different occasions, the colors go with many other colors. A dream kilt for me.

    Add the fellowship to all that. We gotta rendezvous somewhere.

    And, I'm betting maybe there are a few guys who wanna add yardage to the finishing run if that's possible...

    OK Ron, I'm not letting you get away with this!!

    HERE's what awaits you if you have Geoffrey (Tailor) Ltd of Edinburgh make up your kilt:



    Has anyone else on this side of the pond ordered from the 2nd run of the "X Marks..." tartan? I should like to think that mine will still be unique in the United Kingdom!!! ;)

    Aye Ham,

    'tis a beauty too!

    Boy, if any of you other members of the X Marks clan haven't figured out what a beautiful and versitile tartan this is you ain't paying attention.

    Any kilt is fun to wear. This X Marks tartan is a joy to wear.

    How much is the tartan? Where from?

    Hi all,

    Being new to the forum I have missed out on much before. How much is the tartan? Where would I order it from?

    Looks gorgeous, by the way!

    Thanks

    Of course you have, and that's great, Derek! If we don't meet up before you have it made up, we certainly MUST as soon as you receive it in kilt form. Think of the photo opportunities - the two of us in "X Marks...." tartan - if nothing else!!

    Ham I wish that I was just not as far as I'am, I will be visting my Mother soon now the days are getting longer summer is coming and you are only 40 miles from her, If Steve reads this as well I have found a kilt maker only 20 miles away from where I live and they are all ready for me to take the tartan post hast to have made up for me
