A SCOTTISH artist is set to bring her handmade Harris Tweed cushions to a major event this weekend.
Perth-based Morag Bheag will be showcasing her work at the National Gardening and Outdoor Living Show, which opens this Saturday at the Royal Highland Centre.
Bheag’s designs, featuring thistles, sheep, Highland cows, and Scotland’s iconic kelpies, have become a hit with campervan and mobile homeowners.
While Bheag had always enjoyed stitching as a pastime, it was her daughter who encouraged her to turn it into a business.
She found that demand quickly took off thanks to the charm and craftsmanship of her designs.
Bheag said: “A lot of the single loom weavers aren’t making fabric anymore, so I treasure the beautiful fabrics I’ve had from them and try to incorporate my stock into the designs.”
The event on Saturday will feature a wide range of attractions, including celebrity gardeners, craft stalls, and a traditional flower show.
Visitors will also have the opportunity to win a three-day break in a camper or mobile home.
Tickets for the National Gardening and Outdoor Living Show are on sale now and are available here.
