Recognizing Red Cross/Red Crescent volunteers for all they sacrifice.

There is less than one month left. Those who pledge $50 will receive ten yards of tartan fabric in the ‘Humanitarian Mission (Dress)’ tartan. This tartan is designed in honor of Red Cross/Red Crescent volunteers. It is intended to represent the mission of the Red Cross/Red Crescent movement.

Visit the campaign to get the backstory on the tartan’s creation and registration in the Scottish Register of Tartans on January 8th, 2013. Every bit helps. I hope to finally have this tartan woven albeit in a wool blend by the end of September, 2016.

‘Humanitarian Mission (Dress) tartan.

There is one month left for the ‘Humanitarian Mission Tartan and a Kilt’ campaign. A $5.00 pledge equals one yard of tartan fabric. This campaign is raising enough money to have 200 yards of tartan fabric commercially produced.

To date, $150.00 was raised. This campaign needs to raise another $710.00 to complete the project. Each person who pledges the project will receive a length of tartan fabric based upon the perk being pledged. Visit this campaign and help me get this fabric produced.

Southern Cross Tartan

Recognizing Red Cross/Red Crescent volunteers for all they sacrifice.

This campaign was started so 200 yards of fabric can be woven in the Humanitarian Mission (Dress) tartan. In March 2013, the Red Cross celebrated its 150th Anniversary. This tartan was created on September 29th, 2012 in honor of my former/fellow Red Cross volunteers . . .

New Tartan Designs - More works in progress.

There are currently 19 tartan designs in my portfolio and another 20 will be added later. I spent the past few days re cataloging all the designs I want to keep in my portfolio. As long as I can get a total of 40 tartan designs, with their respective thread count and color palette, there should be enough for a book that I can sell to weavers. 

My portfolio is currently divided into 2 parts; custom tartan designs and registered tartan designs. More updates on my portfolio project to come. For more information on my tartan design portfolio or suggestions for tartan themes contact me at J Orr Tartan Design.

Just a few of the 800, or so, tartan designs that I have created over the course of 3 years. If I knew how to make weaving drafts in my current tartan designs they would be posted online too.
