One of the reasons why I left the dark place long ago, but never deleted my account, is that I would lose part of the history that happened via twitter, when it was still a good place.
Such as this story behind the patchwork tartan map, connected to Scotland, Scottish independence, Brexit and hope.

So my idea for this custom design was born. And the amazingly talented @MissBabington made so many of my thoughts and emotions come alive in one frame. A saltire 🏴 heart. The Scottish thistle. The saying. And a map showing the colourful diversity of Scotland in tartans. 💙 /8

The rise in xenophobia elsewhere is in stark contrast to the attitude behind this test, which is very much that of a welcoming, inclusive nation, where nationality is based on civic identity. It truly does not matter where you came from, if you wish to make Scotland your home. /3

My story behind it:
I call Scotland my home. But like so many new Scots, I wasn't actually born here. That difference doesn't really matter though. When I first mentioned my plans to move to Scotland, I was overwhelmed by the friendly welcome. And I was sent a Scottish citizenship test. /2

I was asked to do a custom design tonight & although still in progress I think it is one of the most emotional & beautiful designs so far, 67 different tartans used, the concept is one I share, If you feel Scottish then you are. I want all Scots to feel safe/welcome at home x

It was a custom creation made for me, which Donna then added as a limited edition to her shop. Sadly she's closed it down now, but I treasure the original. I also have some other designs with the patchwork tartan 😀
The story behind it was on her website and I did a twitter thread about it.
