Ok my camera have decided to not work because of the battery and all other available didn't work too.I was , I mean I am very curious to know where this tartan came from if it have an history or something.I used it for a scottish costume so if someone ask I want to be ready.It is 3 color , medium-dark green with tiny white line and small and medium black line and squarre.Is there anyone who have seen this somewhere?I try to search on the search engine of house of tartan and the authority but there is so much to look at it will take a month to find it.So I was hoping that someone maybe knew it.If it's the case , please let me know.

Is there any other place where I can search to maybe find my answer?

Sounds somewhat like the Irish National:

But, as you can see, it also has Yellow...so I guess it's probably not it.

The tartan you describe could almost be my family one (Douglas) - if not for the medium black line sad.gif

Is it anything like this http://www.tartans.scotland.net/tartan_info.cfm?tartan_id=1346?

No it's not this one, there is less white and the green is darker.But it become closer I guess.I try every page on clan.com and did'nt find it.I start thinking it is maybe not a tartan froma family but maybe from a tartan create by a company.I really don't know what to think.
