I have an exhausted coat in in a wonderful donegal tweed.

What to do with the material.

Has anyone ever made or found a pocket square in tweed?

I know that hand rolled edges would be a problem, and a bit of material would go a long way, but still.

Doesn't sound good. Better use would be a cap or even a throw cushion.
