OK, thank you.

I really like your design. I'm thinking of doing a blackish tartan myself. Very elegant.

That's really slick. It's simple and pretty well balanced. Very clean, not too busy. Well done.

I can't say how well it will pleat, but I'm sure a good kiltmaker can get most any sett to pleat up.

I'd like to see it box-pleated to the yellow stripes, hiding the white in the underpleats, which would "flash" as you walk.

By the way, the weaver might not necessarily perfectly match the colors and shades you've listed, but it will be a handsome tartan regardless.

Yeah, I picked those colors because they were listed as "weavers colors" on the Scotweb tartan designer, but I imagine just saying "white" and "medium blue" would be fine.
