IL020 Handkerchief Gouache Softened - 100% Linen Fabric - Light (3.7 oz/yd2) - 20.00 Yards, Width 58"
There is a pale, almost lilac tinge to GOUACHE
Linen's pastel blue, echoing the dreamy, mystical light of Belgian
Surrealist Rene Magritte. Master of the uncanny, Magritte transformed
familiar objects into magical or metaphorical symbols by floating them
amidst hazy, pastel skies and airy white clouds, letting them drift off
into another world, where lucid dreams unfold.
At a lighter weight of 3.5 ounces this 58 inch wide 100% linen is woven with finer threads to give it a smoother appearance. Referred to as lightweight or handkerchief linen, this fine, but surprisingly sturdy linen brings new meaning to the term "sheer elegance".
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).

Used this for the back of a quilt and I am already thinking of making another one with it. It is a gorgeous color, feels wonderful, washes great, and just quilted so nicely! Highly recommend
I absolutely love this color! I can't wait to make it up. Your fabric is really wonderful to sew with.
This fabric is beautiful and so is the color. Best to get steamed at dry cleaners when done making garment. Makes for a stunning finish! Needs lining in front if making clothes
Fabulous color. I can't wait to make my favorite summer top.
Exquisite Quality! Smoothly Woven Handkerchief Linen! Long Staple Fibers that Drape so lovely with a Beautiful "Hand!" Will be a Beautiful Nightgown!!!
I hand-stitched these palazzo pants with a draped neck blouse that hangs in two layers on the front from your gouache fabric for a cool summer outfit. The pale azure blue color glows and makes me feel wonderful when I wear it. It hangs nicely and was easy to "iron" with my fingers as I stitched the seams. All I had to do was measure and press it down between my thumb and index finger to get a clean, straight seam to stitch. A really lovely fabric that I highly recommend for spring and summer sewing.
