    David: If Strathmore's web pages are complete, it doesn't appear that they offer a heavyweight MacDonald Dress - only light and medium weight. So, that eliminates them, traditional selvedge, or not.

    Your only option then may be to ask Dalgliesh to do a custom run. You could send them a swatch of HoE medium and ask them to match it as best they can. You might first ask Srathmore, or even HoE, to do a custom run of MacDonald Dress in their heavyweight, but they probably have a large minimum.

    I see Strathmore's is 30 metres. Have some friends who are interested? ;-)

    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.
