This year, the Alma Highland’s Festival honored clan was the Tartan of the State of Michigan. Who else would exemplify the tartan more than a drum major? This drum major sewed her kilt and sash with the State of Michigan tartan cloth. Not only did she use 11 1/2 yards of tartan for her kilt, but she had to line her kilt due to the tartan cloth being a lighter wool.
Wow, what a lot of work and dedication…but she looks wonderful (and impressive!). Her headdress is Ostrich Feathers….so the Ostrich is not as committed…if you know what we mean! Our compliments to her for all her hard work towards the festival.
