    Brilliant!! I just looked up the New Mexico tartan, of which there are 2! Having been born there, I just may have to start saving my pennies again...

    Ya, a couple of years back I was planning on selling my place, and moving up there to Colorado, not too far from the Four Corners area. Then, you know... the economy and real estate market went...

    SPLAT!!

    I wasn't sure which New Mexico tartan is the official one, but I thought I had read somewhere that Kathy Lare offers one of them. Turns out that isn't the official NM state tartan.

    Then I figured out my ancient roots aren't... Scottish

    SPLAT!!

    The tartan throw rug was yanked out from under me.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…

    Need to pinch me pennies; personally I like the 2522 that I believe Kathy has right to... too bad it does not have one more red strand, then the cross would look like a Zia symbol. But given Native American sentiments, the two crossing threads look great. The colors are very reminiscent of the Acoma ribbon shirts.
