4C22 Rustic Mecca Orange Softened - 100% Linen Fabric - Heavy (7.1 oz/yd2) - 20.00 Yards, Width 57"
A cross between Rust and Burnt Orange, this color exudes both warmth and sophistication. This is one of those colors that just makes anything you use it for "Pop" and stand out. MECCA ORANGE linen is backlit with scorching heat, recalling French Fauvist Andre Derain's glowing, sun-streaked landscapes. He was intoxicated with the golden light in the South of France, painting it with heightened colors that seem to buzz with the electrifying energy of life.
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
Love this fabric, I just made the Marianna Jacket with this fabric and it turned out beautiful. Easy to work with, just the right weight!
Love this linen, easy to sew with. Would buy more but postage is very expensive.
Even after washing the Orange remained intense. May combine it with Chocolate or one of my blue purchases. Nice to the hand, and the simple free downloads and free use of patterns to registered members definitely add extra value for home sewists or small businesses.
Great for winter apparel
I ordered 5 yards of this to make a jacket dress. As always, upon arrival, I lament that I didn't get just double that! Everything -- texture and color are rich and the thickness is the much needed heartiness for our chilly winters. It also sews up like a dream. What a joy to get more in my arsenal for some colorful pieces. I cannot speak enough to the rustic linen's strength, longevity, and versatility. No other weight of linen would do for my winter jackets and long skirts; therefore, thank you FIS:-D You are the ultimate Gem! These colors are so beautiful and a real treasure. I will be ordering more of this one in the near future!
Great fabric, great color - perfect weight for the Marianna Jacket.
