Tartan Tablet Cover

Image
What can you do with that remnant tartan cloth laying about?  Make a custom tartan cover for the new tablet that Santa brought, of course!  I obtained this one from Belvi Designs , whom I found on Etsy selling tweed tablet covers.  I almost pulled the trigger on one of those, then thought -- if she can make one from tweed, surely she can make one from the New House Highland tartan.  A few emails exchanged, the tartan mailed off to her, and a few days later I was rewarded with this.  I love using it, and knowing there is not another one out there like it!

I just finished up this kilt and plaid in the MacLean of Duart weathered colors (16 oz heavy weight cloth woven by Lochcarron).  I took these photos showing some kilt hose color recommendations with this tartan.
