Which Tartan Is This?

[kiltedrennie]

I picked up a mill end at Joann Fabrics today. It's only 70% wool, but for $6/yd I couldn't let it go. Does anyone have any idea if this is a clan tartan or just a random plaid?

I think that this is what is called a fashion tartan. From what I can see it is a plain weave and not a twill weave.

It's just a random plaid. Not a registered tartan.

[kiltedrennie]

You're right. I took a closer look and it's a plain weave. Still nice colors and pattern. Not sure what I'll use it for.
Maybe I can make a nice skirt from it ;-)

The pattern is here somewhere - why not make an X-Kilt?

If you have enough material.

Very nice fabric. That might indeed make a cool x-kilt.

I have six yards, 59" wide.

[Chas]

That is not to say that it isn't a handsome weave, because I think it is.

Elsie (of The art of kiltmaking) calls this "Bastard Tartan"
I just love her....

LOL! I'll make sure I remember that when I'm asked what clan it is!
