Farquharson tartan/pleats help

As the Farquarson Tartan has a base of Black Watch with red and yellow overcheck - may I ask what the Sett size is of the fabric you have?

And may I also ask what size pleat reveal you would like to go for?

The sett size is 30cm and it's an asymmetrical tartan. Not sure what you mean about pleat reveal? Doesn't that depend on how many pleats there are? I would prefer to not go below 24 pleats but I can only get 21 out of this by back pleating when marking out.

It is a fairly small kilt for a teenager so the pleated area at the seat will measure 45cm with 35cm at the waist. (17.75" Seat and 13.75" waist)
