- Notes:
-
In his thorough and painstaking 2008 review of Canadian tartans, John Fitzpatrick pointed out that a series of ten tartans from Pik Mills of Quebec City were probably their contribution to the ‘Centennial of Confederation’ like the ‘Fathers of Confederation’ series produced by WCWM/Sainthill-Levine. All ten tartans are complex asymmetric designs each with different warp and weft. The threadcounts (taken from the CIDD) remain the same but colours are changed.
