Alan-I did see the posts regarding the tartan. My issue is not that the selvedge is damaged. It clearly was advertised as such. My disappointment lies in that I bought it early: I know Gordon is out money on this and I wanted to at least support his efforts at recouping costs. I got a terrible piece, while those who waited months and bought it at a lower price got good stuff. I wote Gordon to see if I could purchase additional fabric that might have a better selvedge and was told there was nothing to do. Then later, folks were able to get some "hand-picked" that was good. That is my issue.
AA-thanks for the reminder. I think this will be my opportunity to experiment with the blind hemming option!

On edit: Colin, I hear you and I agree. My intent was not to knock F & K, I have gotten great service from them in the past. My original post stands--I just wanted to alert folks that this is what some of the tartan looks like. I will end here.
