Title: Snowdrop Tartan registered!
Post by: Maggi Young on November 29, 2020, 06:33:57 PM

And  now  for  something  completely  different!!

News from Matt Topsfield: " Snowdrop tartan has been officially registered - snowdrops and weaving are two things I’m keen on, here brought together in one place!"

I wonder  when we'll see the  first  Galanthophile  kitted  out  in  this?!! It should, of  course, be  Matt Topsfield himself!

Now  there's  a  frightening thought! Trews  would  be  good  though,  Ian looks  great in those! I can see Matt in a  smart  new  kilt, though  !

How long will it take until it can be purchased? I use to buy such things (I love kilted skirts) at Kiltsandmore.come. They deliver to Germany too.

Greetings
