    When I was a little kid, I had a Bernard the mouse doll from the movie "The rescuers," and he had a tartan hat on. It wasn't in the movie, though. May have been kind of like the Wallace tartan, but I'm trying to remember from twenty-five or so years back...

    sometime last year there was the Shrek/McDuck tartan discussion going on. Maybe somebody can find that thread and re-post some of the pix here.

    Just a quick observation of the first tartan posted. This is a wonderful example of an asymmetric (non-matching, non-centered tartan), for those of you who have wondered what an asymmetric tartan looks like.

    There is a Shrek tartan that was recorded with the Scottish Tartans Authority last year. It's tartan 7259. Pic below. And it's not copyrighted. So, who's gonna be the first to have a custom-woven length for a kilt??

    My daughter currently only has an Irish National from SWK. We just ordered her a Fraser from Sport Kilt. She really wants a Cameron tartan, because she has a couple of friends are named Cameron.

    I actually like the "MacBarbie". What was the source?

    Well, I just invented that name ! We just picked it up from a local cloth shop here in France !
