It's 54" wide, a twill (medium weight, though I've been told by several
other clans that they are going to make men's kilts out of it), and an
especially important point, it's WOVEN.  The Modern is supposedly a
prefect copy (I didn't pay to have that one test woven-it was $175 a
test run).  However, the dyes are modern and used in almost every other
tartan that he has been running in cotton.  The modern is VERY close
(the salmon is only slightly off).  I had a swatch run of this.  It is
only about 6" by 6" so I can't send everyone a piece.  We had to
specially make the dyes because they are not common ones.  I had several
meetings over this and we got as close as we could.  I am quite happy
and it looks great.  I think that's it.  Anything I've forgotten let me
know.  Oh, the totals so far are:
40 yards of the Ancient and 36 of the Modern.  Remember, we have to have
350 yards of a type (not together) to order.  Darwin

	HI Everyone,

	The fabric sounds interesting.  How wide is it?  How heavy is
it?  I like your
	ideas, Jean.  I'm considereing it.

	 I am going to make curtains for my genealogy room with the
tartan.  I am
	 also having a photo album covered for my Sinkler-Sinclair-St.
Clair photos
	 in Scotland and US.  If the material is thick enough, I will
also cover a
	 throw pillow for my office sofa.  My friend is going to make me
a paperback
	 book cover and bookmark also.  Just a few ideas for the
material!
