Orange and green with Blue and Black stripes

My sister sent this PM to me today.
 "I think you might have orange blood in your veins. I joined House of Grimmet (surnames various forms of McIlvaine...) Facebook page. They were asking a while back if anyone was interested in getting a lightweight sash from the MacElvain ancient tartan, so I said I would be interested in ordering a couple. They got enough interest to get House of Tartan to produce the material for it, and they made it into sashes. I ordered 2 as soon as they had them ready, and I got them a couple days ago. The background color is orange, and it has green, a small amount of blue, and a thin line of black. Not sure when or if I'll wear mine, but it's pretty cool. Thought maybe you would like the other one as a gift, being that it's orange and all.........  "
 Since we have a good % of Scott in our blood, more than just the McIlvaine line, I probably will have to find me a good sash pin and wear this sometime(s).
 I thought it was interesting to be mostly Orange with Green(kinda like the early Allis Green) with the stripes the colors(Blue and Black) of the decals on the early Orange tractors.
 I guess I'm getting a late birthday present

looks like you are gonna make a kilt

It's just a sash, so I may have to find a matching kilt. Then I could air out once in awhile
 Kinda interesting that the colors the old clan used showed up in life before I knew much about the ancestors.
 I always thought I was half Dutch, but sister had DNA test, and it seems our Dutch line came from a northern area where almost no Germanic traits are found. A bit of Scandinavian and other northern European, without being Dutch persay.
