Tartan | Jonathan Faiers

I own zero plaid and zero books with plaid on them. 😅 I went to Google for help with this #LittensDressedInBlood prompt and since I‘m a nerd, I searched for books on the history/story of plaid (or rather tartan). I was not disappointed! 😍
Definitely adding the tagged book to my TBR, it sounds absolutely fascinating!
(Several weaving books popped up that most likely will also find their way onto my TBR at some point. 😅🤓)

Cathythoughts @erzascarletbookgasm oh sorry , I wasn‘t clear there 😬I must finish both Constellation & Conviction ( still reading them ) .... yes , I‘ll use the thriller for #tartannoir 👍🏻it‘s good 5y

Cinfhen Conviction is a US #KindleDailyDeal today ~ trying to decide if I should buy it 🙈 (edited) 5y

erzascarletbookgasm Good to know, Cathy. I don‘t have any books for tartan noir. If any other tartan noir authors are recommended, please let me know. @TrishB @Cinfhen . I googled and it seems Val McDermid and Ian Rankin are good? 5y

Cinfhen I just read this one @erzascarletbookgasm and it was very good

His Bloody Project: Documents Relating to the Case of Roderick Macrae (Longlisted for the Booker Prize 2016)

Cathythoughts @Cinfhen Daily deal !!!! Oh go for it. I paid full price on kindle yesterday & I‘m not sorry ..... 5y

Cathythoughts @Cinfhen and I didn‘t realize I could use it for #Tartan 5y

Cathythoughts @erzascarletbookgasm I loved His Bloody Project too 👍🏻👍🏻 5y

Cinfhen Bought it 😂😂#SorryNotSorry 5y

Cathythoughts @Cinfhen 🥳... I hope you like it. I‘m on the couch reading it right now 👍🏻 5y

Cinfhen I‘ll let you know ~ enjoy 😊 5y

Cathythoughts @erzascarletbookgasm Also I loved this one

The Quaker

TrishB @erzascarletbookgasm both of those are good and The Quaker and Ann Cleeves Shetland series probably qualifies. 5y

erzascarletbookgasm Thank you, I have some good choices now! @Cathythoughts @Cinfhen @TrishB 5y

Homongous scone eaten on the shores of Loch Lomond. Had to take half home 😁 #scotland #tartan #cake

Scottish Clans and Their Tartans | W Johnson

First printed in 1896; my sweet little edition was born in 1955 in the 38th printing. It's a such a wee charmer of a book. 📚💕

elliemcc11 I didn't know 15 1/2p stamps were even legal anymore! 8y

Jess_Read_This @elliemcc11 I just learned about the 15 1/2p stamps from an Instagrammer! She said they were last printed in 1983 and discontinued in 1984!! I'm sending them along to her for her collection. I just thought they were neat and had clue on their background. 8y

elliemcc11 Can't say I remember them being issued but then it was 1983 or 1984 when they were in circulation. If she's a collector she will probably be very interested. 8y

Jess_Read_This @elliemcc11 I was so glad the package was laying on top of the trash bin with nothing on it when I went to find it! 🙈 8y
