New Tartan Advice

**werewolves** · 26th January 11, 08:05 PM

I designed a tartan for the sheriff's office that I work for, and have been honored to have the Sheriff accept my design. Since the design has been approved, I am mainly looking to double-check that the pattern is acceptable for making into a kilt. Will it "pleat" correctly, etc.

Here is the pattern:

Black 6
Gold 6
Black 78
Peroxide White 2
Balmoral Blue 6
Morning Grey 12
Black 12
Morning Grey 12

Any advice is appreciated.

To me ... it looks like it should pleat well.

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.
