Custom Weave of Welsh Tartan

[Blaidd]

No problem, but thank you anyway.

Mohughes5051,

When you say you may want to have a blend done, do you mean something like a Polyester/Rayon blend? If so, there is really only one weaver who will normally have the yarns for that type of fabric in stock.

That weaving mill is Marton Mills.

Everyone else would have to source the yarns in the specific composition and exact colors you want. Not that they could not do it, but the price would be higher.

My suggestion would be to try Marton Mills again and include in your communication a copy of the authorization from the Wales Tartan Center, who are the copyright holders to the Welsh plaids, to have one of their designs woven by someone other than Cambrian Woolen Mills, who are the designer and weaver of record.

Most mills will not violate a copyright or restriction without written authorization from the copyright holder or designer. I know for a fact that Marton Mills will respect a copyright and will not knowingly violate one. They get all sorts of requests on a daily basis, and if you did not include a copy of your written authorization, that may be the reason they did not respond.
