hedga is short hand for House of Edgar, an old and very reputable weaver with excellent quality and reputation. I have a couple HoE (another shorthand for them) tartan kilts in 13 and 16oz wts and they are great.
Tuckin selvedge merely refers to the type of edge the fabric has (the selvedge) and a tuck in is a good one, appropriate for kilt making.
hope this helps.
