    I would second the recommendation for Andrew Elliott weavers, when we did the Scottish Wildcat Tartan our first weave was with DC Dalgliesh, though this may have been outsourced. Our second and third runs were with Andrew Elliott and I could not be happier with both the product and the service. When we were getting this together we had sample threads from different weavers sent out for our approval, you really need to do this, one weaver sent heavyweight and medium weight threads together, as you can imagine that just would not work for making tartan and we went with Dalgliesh as the colours were the closest to the original design, I am happy to say that Andrew Elliott were able to match the original weave.

    Another mill that might be worth trying is Bute fabrics, I think they do some for Houstons Kiltmakers (Paisley). No Idea of costs or minimum quantities, but like the quality..
