identify a tartan or two

[Sharon Lamb]

Hi:

New to the list, was hoping someone could suggest how I could identify a couple of tartan samples I just purchased.

More out of curiosity than anything else, always nice to know what the tartan is.

I have tried the two tartan books I have with no luck.

Thanks for any and all suggestions

I would attach them to this message, but NOT quite sure how to do that, or if we are allowed!!

Hello,

If you would like to find out how to add pictures to your posts please follow this link to our FAQ's.

To post a picture you must first upload it to somewhere on the web. This can be one of the on-line photo hosting sites such as photobucket or your own website.

I'm sure our Tartan experts would be happy to help you identify your Tartans.

Hmmm posting the picture is far, far, FAR more complicated that I think I am able to do.....did that make sense???

Anyhow, any chance, IF, I send YOU the two pictures I have you could post them???

Sorry, yeah I know I am new, but I thought this would be an easy project.....and really had my fingers crossed that it would be a no brainer for someone out there to look at and say..........well DARN!!! that's ______ tartan.

As one bc-ite to another. P L E A S E !!!!

Where in BC are you?

[Sharon Lamb]

sorry didn't notice your question about WHERE in BC I am

I am in Aldergrove, it is just one hour east of Vancouver..........in case you never heard of it and where it is located.

Thanks again for posting the photos.

Here are your two scans.

the first one is the Alberta Provincial Tartan.


And the second is Manitoba

Thanks very much for identifying the tartans.

I wouldn't have got them, even though I had tried checking through google and thinking they MIGHT be provincial tartans.

The Alberta one looks totally different, to me, on google.

But glad you were able to nail them done.

Well done.
