I have worked with Fraser Hunting tartan (see http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/s...ad.php?t=16994.) That military box pleat project is on hold for just another month or so. IMHO, the tartan colors are so interesting that pleating to the sett is the preferred option.

BOTH, one of each
Sorry...had to do that. I would agree with everyone, the stripe would look sharp.
HEY... YEAH! I agree with THAT! Buy 1 of each (from me of course) and then tell everyone which is better! HAHAHAHAHA.
In case you can't tell, I'm kidding abut buying 2 (although it's been done by other customers before... with disposable income).

I prefer sett. Sett is more civilian, stripe is more military.

Having bought a bolt of tartan cloth I am making four kilts - three pleated to different stripes and one to the sett - the results are so different, each one is interesting - I think the choice of how to pleat has got to be purely personal, whatever strikes a chord in you.
