Michigan State District Tartan Tartan Number: 3473. Earliest known date: 2002 Designed by Michigan weaver Kati Meek, this was originally called 'Michigan up North' referring to Upper Northern Michigan whose landscape inspired the colours. Scottish groups had been campaigning for years for a State tartan and the process of seeking State approval and adoption was initiated in February 2007 with increased pressure when Wisconsin became the latest Midwest state to adopt its own tartan, leaving Michigan as the only Great Lakes State without one. In 2010 Gov. Jennifer Granholm and Lt. Gov. John Cherry proclaimed the design to be the official Michigan State Tartan. See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015
