Lavenham
Lavenham's story starts in 1969, when Mrs Elliot founded the company with a quilted horse rug. Its original factory was in the village of Lavenham, in Suffolk. Today it works from its Suffolk factory, six miles from that first site, where more than 100 local people are employed. Lavenham says quilting, cutting, sewing and inspection all happen there, and that its fabric is quilted in house on the factory's own machines. Most of that fabric comes from British mills, including mills in Manchester and Scotland.
