Check with Matt first, at the STM. If you really want a wool tweed, perhaps you'll get lucky there.
Next, try Vogue Fabrics in Evanston: voguefabricsstore.com
You may not find wool, AND a tweed, AND a pattern that would make a suitable kilt. But maybe they'd have a nice heavy suiting in a solid color wool blend, or something that would work? I was wondering this weekend about a poly/wool they call "Stonehenge Mulberry Twill," but your specs don't include a dark plum color. 
If you strike out all around, Stillwater Kilts has rescued many of our members with a deadline, and USA Kilts (link at top of this page) will take a rush order for a modest surcharge.
