Dear Polly,
I'm not certain whether you are looking for a supplier of
fabrics for military uniforms or the name of a British manufacturer of fabrics
during WWII? The name of a military fabric supplier in Britain is Abimelech
Hainsworth Spring Valley Mills Stanningley, Pudsey, West Yorkshire LS28 6DW, UK.
www.abimelech.co.uk or email abimelech@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
They might help you either way.
