Natural Sheets
I made the sheet pattern using the Natural 1019 for a CA King Size Sheet Set. Actually, it was pretty easy just a little scary at first, but was easy just time consuming. I made the matching pillow slips and added some 3 inch lace to them. I have an older bed, and appeared as tho the sheets were a little large. They are not and they lay flat, and feel so good. I may decide to make another set at some point. Do not be intimidated, give it a try. You will be glad you did. It does take time but it is easy to do and so rewarding.
Looks great - Fabulous Value
I had intentions of sewing a fabric curtain for a doorway between a bedroom and closet, but this fabric looks awesome with raw and selvage edges for my use. I simply used Ikea curtain hooks & wire to attach it. The weight is perfect for so many applications as it drapes and puddles nicely if you're doing something like a curtain. Thanks Fabric Store for the quick shipping and great service.
Versatile fabric
Already made plans for my 10 yd purchase. When projects completed I might buy more. It's just that good!
Great fabric
This fabric is more than what I expected. Love the texture, color, and feel. Has a nice grain smell to it aswell. Will buy more of this natural color.
natural color linen
love this color and texture. Will be making a shower curtain from it. Price was very reasonable.
Valance in Natural Linen
A customer requested a valance for her window made out of linen and embroidered with her monogram initial. She was thrilled with the result. Love this linen. Easy to sew and great to work with in general. whimseacottage.etsy.com

I love this fabric
Perfect Linen!
I am very pleased with this linen. There was slight shrinkage - about 2% in the length and none in the width (60\" after hot washing). I have read the detailed instructions which one of your reviewers has posted for laundering linen. These look like excellent advice for laundering any fine plant fiber. The problem is I wanted a good sturdy utilitarian natural fabric to make an every-day shirt for my son who is not always careful with his laundry. This non-softened natural linen seemed like a good choice. Time and repeated washings will tell. This was a pleasure to sew. I live off the grid, have limited electricity and can't use an electric iron. With this linen, it was easy to "finger press" the seams. My son is very happy with his new shirt. I plan on using the same fabric to make an every-day skirt for myself.
Beautiful hand
This linen, unwashed, is crisp and slightly stiff. I washed/dried it in hot temperatures and it softened up. Ironing it restores the crisp texture, but it has a pleasantly soft hand overall. The color is somewhere between a golden beige and light gray: "greige"? It is a lovely neutral. Intended end use will be napkins or kitchen towels.
Better Than Expected - And I Expected A Lot!
This is one of the most versatile colours I have come across. It has a wonderful character on its own but it is also well suited to complement just about every colour of the spectrum. The quality is top notch as well. My mind is racing at the possibilities of what this gorgeous linen can be used for.
Great choice
I used this linen for a quilt smashing and backing,then reordered just to have on hand. Scraps were used for embroidered shoe bags. I love the feel of this and the color is such that it goes well with just about anything. I am now using it for pillowcases. Love it!
surprise
I had no idea what I was getting when I ordered this. I am happy, it is different from what I was going to use it for, so now I have to be creative. That bag was a good idea. I am always happy with my order and now I order a swatch first, it really helps, and it comes really fast no doubts about the color or texture, Thanks again,
Color much darker than pictured or described.
While I like the fabric, the color doesn't even come close to that in the photo. It is really a dark taupe shade. Now my decision is where I can make use of it as it is not the correct color to go with my scheme.
nice!
I wasn't sure ordering fabric without looking at it. The price was very attractive. I am glad that I took the chance. I thought texture was little bit coarse and heavy side at first, but prewashing it couple of times before sawing solved the problem. Make sure when you first wash it, wash it seperately in cold water. I washed it with other fabric, and it transfered the color and lint. The more you wash it, it seems fabric feels softer. I really like the natural look of this fabric. I am thinking about buying this fabiric in different color next time, and Would recommend to all!
No sewing required! I just turned over several inches at the top and attached it to an easy-to-install Ikea curtain wire with clip on hooks. Easy peasy. The linen drapes nicely and puddles on the floor. I had no idea how heavy 5.3 oz weight was, but it was perfect.
Linen IL019 Natural. Pattern N6604. Purchased this linen from the Doggy Bag section and am glad I did. It sews like a dream and only needs a light iron. It washes well and is perfect for hot summer days.
Natural linen, medium weight, with lace and monogram. Button back.

The perfect choice for tea towels and pairs beautifully with so many colours. My favourite basic in linen that I love having on hand!
Natural linen used for an upholstery redo of a very old chair and a new matching modern accent pillow.
I bought this unbleached linen to make a new tree skirt. It washed up so soft and interesting that I couldn't bring myself to iron it!! Trimmed it up with a ruffle of your taupe/cream bubble linen (also awesome) and I couldn't be happier!! Working on my new, slightly rumpled Christmas Stockings!! Thanks so much for a fabulous product!!
This is an embroidered baby shower gift I made for a friend. The mother-to-be loved her framed embroidery and already placed in the nursery. I love this fabric! My embroidery design sewed out perfectly! The order process was simple and shipment arrived as expected, I love the feel, the weight, the overall look and will order again and again. Thank you. Donna
This is a quilt I made for a friend's baby shower. It was originally going on the food table, but ended up using it on the gift table to prevent spills. The back is the solid lighter/almost 2-tone natural color linen. Very happy with how it turned out. The linens are different weights, but they all work well together. (And they loved it:)
I was so thrilled with the quality of these linens. I made placemats. a table runner and napkins for my daughter's wedding. I used the IL019 Natural, IL019 Sphynx and IL020 Krista natural softened. These were exactly what I wanted, and I was thrilled with the quality and price.
I LOVE this linen so much! It makes the most gorgeous napkins! LaurelSusanStudio at etsy.com
This is my "go to" fabric for all of my linen projects. It's durable and smoother than the heavier linens. I keep coming back for it.
It is a great fabric to sew and embroider! This cushion measures 45cm x 45cm.
I sewed this reproduction 14th century shoulder bag entirely by hand using natural and bleached linen fabric and linen thread. Based on a bag depicted in the early 14th century "Smithfield Decretals".
Wedding present ~ Tablecloth, Napkins, & Tea Towel. Along with a handwritten note on information about linen found at this wonderful web-site of course! ~Lisa M, Palacios, TX PS The Machinist Apron I posted wasn't sideways in my file! My apologies anyway.
My son requested a machinist apron. I chose to make it out of the IL019 Natural Softened. It worked out very well & he loves it! Especially the button-attached hand 'towel'. The Light Weight Black Linen, IL020 worked perfectly for the "Machinist" background; has a wonderful open weave texture. It covers the pocket so 'stuff' won't fly in while he's working. ~Lisa M, Palacios, TX
Just recently I used some of this IL019 Natural linen and I stitched up a so-called "Draw String Bag" and was quite impressed how easy the linen was sewn. I expected some difficulties, especially since I haven.t been working with linen before ..simply love it !
