"This tartan was designed for the American College of Dentists and is intended to be a visual emblem of fellowship and service. It was based on the College’s official colours, lilac and American rose, set on a blue ground with red and white to echo the flag of the United States. A red and white houndstooth band references the College’s four pillars - ethics, professionalism, leadership, and excellence - and its eight Regencies, while also intended to suggest ‘teeth’ in the cloth. Two lilac stripes total twenty threads to mark 1920, the year of the College’s founding, and to recall the colours of convocation sashes."
This #TartanTuesday I'm sharing the American College of Dentists tartan, one of seven registered this week, mainly because they've got houndstooth in there, because teeth! www.tartanregister.gov.uk/tartanDetail...
Not sure what is going on in the back, but for obvious reasons, I chose this photo for my weekly men in kilts post. #TartanTuesday
A dark purple and black tartan. The purple is so dark it nearly reads as black.

Kilts offer excellent ventilation, as this guy shows. I'm volunteering to inspect the quality of his pleats. I'm thoughtful like that.

Oh wow there's no way I can choose just one Tartan for #TartanTuesday this week. Y'all ain't ready for this.
A black and white tartan with alternating wide bands of black and white, with narrow bands of black and white between them.
3 #tartan were registered this week, all personal or corporate, which didn't inspire me. I went looking in the database and found this Tartan from 2023, inspired by the philosophical concept of yin and yang www.tartanregister.gov.uk/tartanLargeI... #TartanTuesday

A deep blue tartan with stripes of white, other blues, and what look to my like possibly grey, green and purples. From the description in the registry: "has stripes of 10 & 100 as the metric system is based on tens. There are 7 colours within the design in reference to the 7 base units of the metric system"... "the metric system is commonly associated with the colour blue."
A very special #TartanTuesday because among the 12 tartans registered in the last week is this one, symbolizing the Metric System www.tartanregister.gov.uk/tartanDetail...
A tartan with a rich mossy-green and brown background, and stripes of red, white, and fire orange. I would be so pleased to wear this, if I was a dinosaur.
It's #TartanTuesday! 16 Tartans registered since last week, including this one, honouring a child's toy Dinosaur that gets taken on adventures around the world by helpful grownups. www.tartanregister.gov.uk/tartanDetail...
A tartan in muted colours of stone, forest green, lavender and gold.
Seventeen tartans in my inbox today, including this one, for a bookstore and its founder, lovingly commemorating the Scottish town where it's located. #TartanTuesday #Tartan www.tartanregister.gov.uk/tartanDetail...
