It took us some time to find the perfect linen that meets our high-quality standards, so we’re thrilled to offer this exceptional range of midweight linen! Part of our Core Collection of fabrics, this linen is made in Europe, Oeko-Tex 100 Certified, and destined to be your new favourite every day, every way fabric. It features a versatile midweight that works equally well for soft, casual looks and more tailored applications and has been pre-softened/washed so it’s incredibly soft off the roll - it will only get better with age and wear*. While it holds a crisp edge when pressed, it also has a deliciously springy drape and a pronounced, slightly rustic weave. Linen is naturally resilient, breathable, hypo-allergenic, anti-bacterial, and durable. It is incredibly easy to sew with and care for, not to mention delightful to wear due to its thermoregulating properties, keeping you cool in summer and warm in winter. This linen will work for a wide variety of garments like casual jackets, tops, button-downs, dresses, jumpsuits and relaxed trousers. Fully opaque, it does not require a lining.


*To provide you with the most accurate fabric description, we also ran a test wash. We’re happy to report that we didn’t experience any colour bleeding or fading and that the fabric got even softer to the touch after only washing it once. Please scroll to the last picture to see the unpressed laundered linen! We love the inherent natural creases and crumples; they are what give linen its relaxed, soft feel.

Care Instructions

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

Linen 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.

Lovely!

An excellent choice for the smock-style shirt I made with it. Mostly opaque, and more of a drape than I expected. Did fray quite a bit, so plan your seam finishes accordingly.

Perfect!

The hibiscus color is beautiful. The fabric is easy to work with. I'm sure I'll be getting this again.

I’m currently making a blouse. Fabric is easy to sew and making up beautifully. Will be ordering more of this fabric for future projects.

Perfect for linen trousers

I used my navy linen to make a pair of loose linen Ninni culottes that are being worn constantly. The fabric is the perfect weight and sews up so easily. No fading after several washes.
