That's a lovely tartan, good colours and well woven. Good luck with your further exploration of this :-)

Thank- you for your feedback. This is the first project that I've posted. I have been reluctant to put my weaving "out there" for others to comment on. I failed to mention that this was a sample for a guild project of 150 napkins for our state weaving convention. I am so glad I did this sample.

I've really enjoyed looking at your Tartan piece this week. It is beautifully woven. I hope you post more of your work. Thanks for sharing this!

Notes

I made this as a sample for some napkins, and will use this as the table runner to go with them.  I wanted to check out draw-in and shrinkage before tackling yardage for multiple napkins.  This is the first true tartan I've attempted. Doing the reasearch and exploring appropriate colors was enlightening.  I think there is some Scott in my heritage, but will have to research THAT further, and geneology is down the list of priorities right now. (I'd rather weave <gg>)
