New tartan and kilt

[andyfg]

Andy,

Nice to see photos of the kilt in action!

I have to tell the rabble that the photographs don't really do justice to the subtle contrast between the different shades of red Andy has designed in his tartan. It really comes out when you get a close look at the tartan in person.

Enjoy!
Matt

Thanks Matt for the kilt! You are right about the colors. I don't know if it was because of the light of the sun or the quality of the camera (my iPhone) but the photo's don't get the color quite right.

Beautiful tartan, and great looking kilt! Could you post either a detail shot or rendering of the tartan? It's wonderful.

BTW: This only deepens my desire to own a Newsome kilt.

This is from the Scottish Register of Tartans:



Though this too does not do justice to the tartan "in the flesh." I will try to take a better picture in different lighting conditions. My aim was something simple, subtle, but quite appealing.

When you can, get Matt to make you a kilt. You will not be disappointed.

NICE, Andy! Wear it to kilt night so we can see it in person...!

Would love to see the subtle effects Matt mentioned...it's a beauty as it is in the photos so it must be spectacular. Well done the both of you!

Brian I'll get there one of these days! And I promise to wear Fitzgibbon red!

Andy, you and Matt must both take a bow for such a fine kilt!
You for the design, Matt for the sewing (and was it the weaving, too?).
I await a picture showing the red shading with great interest.
Regards,
Mike
