Colour:
Shades: A vivid hunting palette of bright teal‑green and deep forest green, strengthened by black and charcoal accents. Clear golden yellow overstripes highlight the grid, while magenta‑red pinlines add sharp contrast. The colours are bold and saturated, typical of modern dyeing.
Design: A modern interpretation of the MacMillan Hunting sett, built on alternating blue‑green and forest green blocks crossed by black bars. The yellow overstripe, a defining feature of the hunting version, forms the dominant grid, while magenta lines provide secondary structure. Modern dyes heighten contrast, giving the traditional MacMillan layout a clean, contemporary sharpness.
Overall: A bright, energetic hunting tartan with strong Highland character. MacMillan Hunting Modern pairs traditional outdoor tones with crisp linework, making it ideal for kilts, jackets and accessories requiring clear geometry and a bold visual presence. Its vibrant colours ensure a striking, instantly recognisable pattern.

Scottish Kilt Sewing Pattern
A sewing pattern with instructions for creating a complete set of Scottish traditional attire, including pattern pieces for the jacket, men’s vest, women’s knitted vest, and knitted socks. The kilt, however, is made differently from the other garments.
A traditional kilt isn’t cut from pattern pieces but instead shaped and constructed directly from the tartan’s woven setts (the design woven into the fabric), this sewing pattern provides clear, detailed guidance on how to pleat and construct the kilt using the fabric itself.
The result is an authentic, beautifully structured kilt created the traditional way - guided by the weave, rather than paper templates.
