Handmade Tartan designs made from recycled kilt by PlaidPerfect

Tweed and Tartan reflect the landscape and people of Scotland.

My Granma taught me to sew when I was about 8 years old and I've been sewing ever since, but it was only when my children were born that I discovered and fell in love with patchwork.

My children are all grown up now, but what started as a hobby soon turned into a business. Since setting up Puffinpatchworks in Edinburgh in 2010 the business has gone from strength to strength. From new design ideas to teaching, I will embrace any change that engages people with fabric and patchwork.

I first started using Border Tweed in my quilts and cushions a few years ago after a customer was looking for a good home for a stash of tweed she had found in her Granny's attic. In exchange for this tweed treasure, I made a 7' square quilt that keeps them warm in winter and adorns the wall in summer.

The stash is nearly gone, but I make trips to The Borders to various mills to source scraps. I also use off-cuts of tartan from kilt makers in Edinburgh, which was why PlaidPerfect was set up in 2018 to make all things tartan. I've started small with the pincushions, but I've too much tartan not to go larger!

I hope you like my designs and who knows what you will see over the next few years...

Thank you from Magghi Mclean

I love this wee croft house postcard! It arrived quickly and I will be framing it, as it is too beautiful to mail away! Thank you...

I LOVE my pillow. It is perfect for my brown tweed chair. I wanted a lumbar pillow that wasn't too large or bulky. This one is perfect. I also wanted something from Scotland. I am so pleased with my purchase and wouldn't hesitate to buy again. It didn't take long to get here (B.C. Canada) from Scotland either.

Thanks again Magghi.

A gift for my mum - I had such a hard time choosing so ordered several items so I now have several gifts ready to give throughout the year.

Delivery was super quick. The quality is fantastic. This is one of two small cushions that I purchased and will look fabulous along with the large stag cushion that I also bought.

I love buying handmade and supporting small businesses and would recommend Plaid Perfect any time.

Delivery was super quick. The quality is fantastic - this is the second of two pin cushions that I purchased and they are different but coordinate wonderfully.

My mum has followed Magghi for some time now on Facebook, as she was bought up very nearby. she loves pretty much all the designs that Magghi does so finding something for her was hard to know what she would like the most! She absolutely adored this cushion which was a Christmas gift.

Delivery was super quick and there was also a little something extra in the parcel. Thank you.

These turned out so lovely. They are bigger than I expected which is perfect! They are about 5"x5". So cute I got one for a friend.
