Customer Testimonials

"It is great when we can buy fabric locally, and Hainsworth fabric is a joy to sew."

Victoria Marzetti, Leeds Playhouse

“I have worked with AW Hainsworth right from the beginning of my career as a designer, for my Graduation Show, visiting the mill and hand selecting cloth. They produce a quality product with a fantastic range of iconic colours that I trust.”

Alex Mullins,

"Hainsworth are reliable, honest and trusted. We have established a consistency with Hainsworth over 15 years which allows us to supply our customers on time."

James Heal

"AW Hainsworth is one of the oldest and best woollen mills in the world. They’ve been doing this a long time, they really know what they're doing. Community Clothing has only ever used their melton cloth for our woollen coats."

Patrick Grant, Community Clothing
