Sorry, looks like we don't have enough of this product.
Figs, but make them offbeat, soft and slightly surreal. We weren’t sure it would work, and then… well, it totally did. Go fig-ure! This juicy number is part of our exclusive Market collection, where fruits and veggies get the bold, beautiful spotlight they deserve. Woven from a lightweight blend of organic cotton and European flax and coloured with Azo-free dyes, this fabric is soft with a slightly textured hand, easy to press, and drapes like a dream. *Compared to last year’s Market batch, it has a tighter, sturdier weave while keeping that airy, breathable feel. *Perfect for soft blouses, playful dresses, matching sets, or floaty pajamas, this fig print is sweet, surprising, and just a little unconventional in the best way. Nearly opaque, it doesn't require for most applications.
Our supplier is a sustainable textile manufacturer founded in 2013 that works with a community of weavers from South India. This supplier operates a 100% solar-powered modern handloom weaving facility and provides complete transparency in their supply chain. This particular fabric is made of organic cotton and European flax. It was coloured with Azo-free dyes.

Wash
Always pretreat fabric before sewing to remove chemical sizing from the manufacturing process. Pre-washing also gives you a better sense of the true drape and handfeel of a fabric. We recommend washing and drying fabric in the same way you intend to wash your finished garment. Be sure to separate brights and colours, as some dyes and prints may run the first few times you wash them.
Long-Term Care
Cotton Linen blends can withstand high heat when washing and drying. Choose warm or hot water when machine washing (choose a cooler temperature for colours). Tumble dry on hot, and remove when slightly damp to help eliminate wrinkles.
Fabric Tips
Press your fabric before cutting out your pattern pieces. Use a hot iron when pressing.

There's no getting around it - the print is absolutely adorable. The substrate, however, leaves to be desired in my opinion. It's super stiff! I'm sincerely hoping it relaxes with washing, because I'm dying for a Jenna shirt in this fabric but I'm afraid it'll feel like wearing cardboard...
Go Fig—ure Print Organic Cotton Linen - Cream + Periwinkle + Light Green + Eggplant
I love the fig linen but so far I can't decide what to make with it! I started with the beet print and totally copied Nissan's shirt (minus the button loops because they traumatized me on Emmaline.) I got SEVEN "I like your shirt" comments on the beet fabric shirt at an art festival today! The fig pattern is so large I'm having a hard time pairing it with a pattern. I know there's one out there though.
I love anything with a strawberry motif and this fabric caught my eye. The color combination is different. I made loose fitting, sleeveless shift dress with a wide ruffle hem. It is so comfortable, and the fabric was a dream to sew. Core Fabrics is the best!
