4C22 Rustic Mix Natural Softened - 100% Linen Fabric - Heavy (7.1 oz/yd2) - 0.70 Yard, Width 57"
The Natural color thread in this fabric is the earth made color of flax when it has been retted and woven into thread. No dyes, no bleach. The only thing that impacts the color of the cloth from one production to the next ( if it is more beige or grey) is the amount of sunshine and rain that particular flax harvest had.
Bleached linen color thread is made by "stripping" the natural color out of flax ( just like you would with bleaching hair). What you are left with is a very soft shade that is just ever so slightly an off-white color.
Mix Natural color is achieved with one bleached thread and one natural color thread interwoven together. As a result - you have a grey toned natural color that is a great compliment to all other colors.
At a heavier weight of 7.1 ounces this 100% linen is referred to as Rustic due to its more textured look and feel. Durable and perfect for projects that require just a bit more substance.
The cloth is Softened so we have added a softener to give it a silkier hand. The fabric has not been laundered so shrinkage will still have to be taken into consideration (shrinkage depends on fabric weave and laundering method).

Customer Questions and Answers
Hi there! Just wanted to see if/when this linen will be restocked. Thank you!
I'm sorry we do not have an ETA for this fabrics restock. we still have Premier Finish of the same color in stock if you prefer.
What is the difference between your Natural and Mix Natural? Is Mix Natural mixed with something? Thanks.
The mixed natural has bleached and natural woven together which gives it a mixed look.
I want to recover my dining room chairs. Is this fabric durable enough? Is there a different one that may be better? My husband always wears jeans and he has worn out two different fabrics in the last ten years. Thank you!
Yes, this linen is often chosen for upholstery and slip cover projects. This one and the slightly heavier IL090 would be the 2 linens to look at for your project.
I want to create a wardrobe for the hot season and cool season using linen. Would this weight be warmer for the colder months?
Yes, this fabric is our go-to for the cooler months and in-between seasons and weather. It makes wonderful pants, jackets and structured dresses and skirts.
What color thread should I use? Lol I'm new to this. Would white be okay or try to get an off white/cream?
Please take a look at this article in our help center - we have a few suggestions for thread color that may help you decide.support.fabrics-store.com/hc/en-us/articles/360058715271-Sewing-with-Linen-Needle-and-Thread-Suggestions
I am looking to purchase fabric to make a slipcover for my sofa that gets a lot of use and would like to be able to machine wash when needed. Would you recommend the 7.1 or 8 oz. version?
Either or would work with the 8oz having just a bit more substance if you feel that it is needed.
