    I recently ordered some tartan from Marton Mills and Batley Mills. Review and link to pics are here:

    In my opinion, the Batley fabric, for the price is probably the better pic. the finish and selvedge are a little nicer.

    Cordially,
    David

    Gotta tell you, if its your clan tartan and you've lusted after it for 14 years you'll thank yourself for buying quality goods to make your kilt from...

    There's nothing like the feeling of strapping on your own clan tartan...can only imagine the extra pride of having sewn it yourself.

    Don't skimp on the important things.
