    Looking at the last picture, I notice the twill going in opposite direction yet the tartan matches (exept for the light blue thread). Was it simply flipped over and the sewn together? (like a mirror image)
    Yes it was.

    Do we know why here are holes in it? (moth holes, bullet holes, hard uses or simply busted threads?)
    Possibly, (and we would know that how), yes.

    As for usage, could it have been used as a cushionned seat in a carriage or an old open car? (meaning out in the opened air and not indoors) Maybe even under a saddle?
    Getting there. Think form but as to function - who knows.
