I was privileged to help the Caitriot fans deliver a very special gift to Caitriona. A tartan woven especially for Cait by Susan Targove, and Janet Cadsawanβs amazing Sassenach pin to celebrate Cait’s one year anniversary of signing up for Outlander.
You guys are amazing! Here are the pics.
I added the last one in there.

What an incredible community of people that have come together because of Outlander. Thank you Terry for sharing the photos on your blog. Allowing us to be a part of the journey is a priceless gift.
How do I connect or become connected with the FANS that put this together? I’d like to be part of stuff like this?
Thank you – Susie – @bsmook
Terry – thank you so much for being willing to facilitate! I am so lucky to live in the same area as April (the amazing Caitriot admin) and Susan Targove (the talented weaver) and am blessed that I was able to see/feel that stole shortly before it was shipped. It’s just stunning!
What an amazing, wonderful year it has been. I look forward to seeing where the journey goes from here for Caitriona, you, and everyone.
And absolutely love the photo of The Puppers! π

Absolutely beautiful, Susan!
It is stunning. she kept saying, “I will wear this!!!!”
Those colors suit her tones beautifully!
Cait looks beautiful in it.
What a beautiful tartan, Susan! Did you design it or modify an existing one?
I believe that whenever Caitriona touches her tartan, she’s going to be able to feel our love, too – the love you put into making it, Susan, and the love the Caitriots feel for our beloved Cait! Thank you for making this on behalf of all Caitriots!
Beautiful job Susan…one day I hope to own a Susan Targove Caitriot original π xo

Thank you Terry, it is exciting to witness Caitriona’s reaction to the gift. I have a confessing… after I had a good look at Cait I made a few more passes through the pictures enjoying the office decor, pictures, postings, and fabric displays – awesome artist space, love it!

Terry, thank you so much for graciously accepting and presenting (and photographing!) Cait’s gift. We can only imagine how very busy all of you are and it means a lot that you made such a nice slide show of it for us to share.
Thank you so much for delivering the gift and capturing these photos with us! I got teary looking at them. What a fantastic accomplishment for Susan and April–but it couldn’t have been made real without you.
Me too. I’m not sure why I got teary eyed but it was so neat to see.
I am so amazed at what a fantastic kind world our Outlander family is…Thank you Terry for presenting Cait her gift and posting the pictures.Cait IS our Claire but she is Our Cait she is not only a beautiful woman but a beautiful actress.Your time is little and precious so again Thank you
Thank you, Terry, for helping out the Caitriots in delivering Cait’s gift. Major props go out to Susan and April for the tartan! You girls ROCK!
Lovely. Thank yous to April, Susan and Terry for getting all this done. So glad Cait likes her gifts. She has been just great as Claire. We all truly love her performance and her generosity to her fans. Love her.
My eyes were welling with tears as I looked through these pictures. Cait seems like such a class act, and a genuinely kind person, and we’re all fortunate that she’s our Claire.Thank you also, Terry, for taking and posting them for all of us to see, since we know how busy you are. My hat is off to all the Caitriots. Y’all did such a wondrous and beautiful thing!
Terry, we obviously are having a hard time thanking you for your role in the gifting today!
Your kindness has touched our hearts and these photos have connected us all in a way that would not have been possible.
We so appreciate it!
Thank you so much.
SherryLynn from the Heughliots
Oh, you are most welcome, SherryLynn! Happy to do it. It is a magnificent gift. Cait, (and all of us), are lucky to have so many wonderful and amazing fans.
What a beautiful tartan! I almost like it better than my MacDonald plaid! π
I seriously doubt there has ever been such a thoughtful, personal, or meaningful gift to someone in Cait’s position. Thanks one more time to April and Susan, and of course Terry, for taking the time out to be the messenger. Glad Cuilean enjoyed the tissue paper!!
Thank you, Terry, for your help and for the pictures. So nice that we could see her reaction when she opened the gifts. And a big thanks to the Caitriots who made them.
Thank you Terry for graciously taking your time and energy to deliver the gift, take the pics and post them. As fans, we rarely have the opportunity to see reactions to our gifts; what you’ve done for us today is very special. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’m proud to be a Caitriot and an Outlander fan.
Thank you for posting, Terry! Cait look so happy wearing her tartan!
Beautiful work by the weaver. Happy Anniversary to Cait. Thank you for all of your work on Outlander. Please know that we appreciate the hours of work for our mental visions of these books to come to life.
