    It originated as a commemorative tartan for the Queen's Silver Jubilee (25th anniversary); there is also a Holyrood gold for the 50th, available in wool. The Silver is available in wool and PV.

    It's neither clan-specific, nor restricted; thus rather a generic Scots oriented tartan like Caledonia. Also it's quite handsome IMHO.

    What is the status of the tartan jersey and bibs? Is it too late to order?

    If it's not too late to order, what is the final design? I know that the tartan is holyrood but is there a drawing of the proposed finished product? I couldn't find it in the previous pages?

    Let me know if you end up doing another run with a different tartan, its a cool idea but this one doesn't work for me.

    FM, I'll update your selection.

    For those coming in a bit late a current status of the project can be found in this thread
    http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/t...025/index.html

    I've not spent any time on this over the holidays but would still like to hear input form those interested in participating. Look for further refined designs early in the new year.
