TARTAN

The Lakeshore Weavers Guild is very proud to have designed a Tartan for the City of Pointe-Claire, to commemorate our Guild's 50th anniversary, twinned with the 100th anniversary of the City of Pointe-Claire, in 2012. Our tartan has been officially recognized and is registered to Scottish Tartan Registry.
