Patterns for Ladies Tartan Outfit?

[Ozark Ridge Rider]

Alan,

As noted above, you have my sympathy, (although I'm not sure you need it) but also my profound admiration!!!

Unless the Chief's wife is taking part in an official capacity, then tweeds, jeans and a Barbour coat would be more the norm for her to wear.

Unfortunately, that's not the look we're going for...

Hey DixieCat!

Thanks for those links! Looks like I've certainly got plenty of patterns to choose from (with the wife's help, of course). Once that's figured out, the trick is to discern which will look good in tartan!? Oi-vey!

Thanks again; I really appreciate your help.

Regards,
Wesley
