Well done, sir. I will expect you to be wearing a kilt in that tartan the next time you show up in Edmonton, and to arrange to meet for beer at O'Byrne's...

I'll be back that way the week before Xmas and it would be awesome if the kilt was ready then  I don't want to get my hope up though 
Either way, we should arrange a kilt night at O'Byrnes...

shorter jones than expected
The New World Irish tartan has been woven and I have a picture of the actual fabric. That was really fast and it's looking likely that I'll get my kilt before Christmas! I don't want to get my hopes up but that would be really awesome
Mark at the Frugal Corner had the New World Irish tartan woven in their heavier weight acrylic range. This will be my first acrylic kilt and I'm interested to see what it feels like. I know lots of people swear by their Stillwater acrylic kilts and I've read that the Frugal Corner's are comparable...
Without further ado, here's the pic:

It took just over two weeks from the day Mark sent the colour match info to the weaver, to the day he received the woven fabric. Darn fast!

Now that is quite beautiful! Congratulations!

Now that’s a record! And it looks great, too.
Now for the kilt pictures (when you take delivery).

Will this tartan be available to the general public for purchase? Does Frugal Corner expect to have this available or will it be a special request?
