Shell Top
Reviewer: Kathleen Hi! I haven´t sewn for myself in years and by purchasing Linen, "Jumped in with both feet"!! While nerve wracking for sure, this fabric was so easy to sew/ work with. My V neck semi sleeveless shell turned out beautifully! I am so pleased with the ease and fit of the linen! I will be using the three other pieces of linen for additions to my growing linen wardrobe! Thank you so much for making The purchase of your linen so easy!!!

Great for particular historical applications
Reviewer: Sigrun I used this material to make a turban-style medieval peasant veil. I washed it as many times as I could before wearing it, which makes a good deal of difference in how workable it is; prewashing is an absolute must. Be aware that this thing wrinkles like the devil on the weft; depending on your application, this could be a very good thing or a very annoying thing. For my application, it merely made it easier to twist the fabric for pinning. I expect anything that looks better with a regular wrinkle (Viking women´s smocks and peploses being two things that come to mind immediately) would be marvelous made of this fabric.

Here's an applique I made from your linen in 2008.

I used natural IL020 for this prayer shawl (I named *Ancient Ways*, IL019 blue bonnet for the stripes underside lining and IL020 bleached white for the middle stripes and corners . This is my most popular design. my customers have told me many times it captures the heart. and I know why... the natural un-dyed Linen gives an old fashioned look and is excellent for making tunics, caftans and any garment you are desiring to have the "natural" old fashioned look with a crisp clean style.
