			Kid's Tartans
		
			
				
					As I do not want to hijack the "Pink Tartan" Thread, here is another one with a few of my little Louise's favorite tartans !
 If your kids (teenagers as well) have favourites, let's talk about it !
 
 Here is a favourite : "MacBarbie" !
 
 
  
 
 and here is MacBabar ! (Do you know Babar , the King of the elephants ?)
 
 
 
  
 
 
 best,
 
 Robert

					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...
				 I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

					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?

					I love asymetrical tartans.  The Welsh seem to do that more than the Scots ....
				 
	
	
	
		
		
		
				
				
		
			
				
					I remember Babar!  I read many Babar books in my French classes, grades 1-4!
