And here it is:

(shown are the K1 heavy weight cloth atop K7 "medium" weight)

I had sent a brighter green to be matched "as closely as their stock would permit", but cannot say I'm displeased with the result. The result is closer to the Wilson's Colours shown earlier and I'm sure it will make a wonderful set of garments over here.

Grateful am I to Gabe for going in on this project with me and facilitating the order as well as to Peter for the wealth of information and the samples he generously provided.

Can I trouble you for a more close-up shot of your tartan? I'm considering having a custom-run of Hunting MacMillan in the WOB colors. Thanks.

It should be mentioned that these are technically not Wilson's colours. I supplied the Blue, Green and Black from the Lochaber WoB swatch, the Red from Lochcarron's modern colours and the White from the sample twists Peter sent me and as I say, the Green now seems to be very close to the threads Peter provided.

Is it too late to pick some of this up?

Congratulations X !! That really came out nice. I'm anxious to see it "kilted up"

Now, sew on with your bad self!

Oh, and do me a favor will ya ? Can you somehow block Davidlpope from seeing your tartan posts ? Every time he gets an idea it costs me money!!

Cheers,
Brooke
