IS010 Waffle Pebble Softened - 54% Linen / 46% Cotton Fabric - Medium (6.2 oz/yd2), Width 84"
Fluffy, dimensional, and simply a joy to live with - you’ll feel like a
sewing maestro when you pull this cloth out of its first dry cycle.
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
Since this fabric is so wide, how much should I buy to make a man's bathrobe, size medium tall? thank you
F|S Team
Hello, this fabric shrinks down to 61" wide after washing, so we recommend getting the suggested yardage for your pattern plus shrinkage for the length only.
I want to monogram the waffled weave towels. Do I monogram before or after washing? Thank you.
F|S Team
Hello, we recommend washing first them applying your monogram to ensure that the fabric shrinkage doesn't engulf or distort your design.
Would this fabric be appropriate for placemats? Thank you.
F|S Team
Yes, you can use this fabric for placemats.
How many yards needed for a twin blanket? Thx
F|S Team
We recommend 3 yards
Do you carry a brown color waffle linen fabric for towels?
F|S Team
This is the only brown color we offer at the moment on this fabric.
Making a throw with this fabric. Shall I wash it first or can I stitch it first and then washing it? Would like to avoid stretched edges. Thank you.
F|S Team
To avoid stretched or rippled edges, you can wash the fabric first, then hem.
Can this be produced in a 100% Linen and can still achieve the waffle effect.
F|S Team
At this time we are not planning. on bringing this in as 100% linen.
Somewhere on this site you included cutting dimensions for two bath towels and two hand towels. Where might I find that?
F|S Team
You can find the cutting directions here: support.fabrics-store.com/hc/en-us/articles/17568000961037-How-to-Sew-a-Towel-Set-from-our-IS010-Waffle-Weave-Fabric-Sewing-Tutorial
I'm just about to start a robe out of the waffle fabric. What is the best seam construction? Serge or a French seam? Thank you
F|S Team
Hello, Serging is most appropriate as the fabric can be too bulky to create a small french seam.
Has anyone embroidered a monogram on this fabric? If so, did you prewash before stitching it out?
F|S Team
Yes many of our customers have monogrammed this fabric or applied other machine embroidery to this fabric. The best results were achieved when the fabric was pre-washed and embroidered with the fabric lightly flattened out and with a tear away backing and a layer of water soluble stabiliser on the top.
How much of the linen/cotton blend would I need to make the bath towel set?
F|S Team
3 yards and the instructions can be found on our blog :)
I'm excited to try this but am a bit confused by the shrinkage figures. How much of this would I need to make a coverlet for my king bed? Would I need to edge it in a different linen to cover the width of the bed completely with a pretty standard depth mattress?
F|S Team
We recommend 8 yards total, which you will need to cut into panels to make it wide enough for a queen sized bed. Generally our customers prefer to have the width of one 4 yard piece as the center panel, and cut the remaining 4 yards in two for the two side panels.
Hello, Is this waffle fabric OECO-TEX CERTIFIED? Thanks MC
F|S Team
It sure is, all of our fabrics are.
Do you have other linen suitable for bedding in the pebble color? I want to add length to the waffle fabric after washing.
F|S Team
The safari color in the IL019 or 4C22 would be the color to look at to coordinate with the Pebble. We have samples for purchase to see which weight would work better for you, both are used for bedding it just depends on your preference.
What is the difference between "softened" and fs or signature finish? It's very confusing on your website! Thos is my second request for answer
F|S Team
We have a very detailed response posted in our help center which you will find here support.fabrics-store.com/hc/en-us/articles/4403575338253-Fabric-Finishes-Explained
Would this Fabric be good for kitchen towels to embroidery on?
F|S Team
Yes some of our customers have used the waffle for kitchen towels and embroider after sewing and laundering the towels.
If you dry clean this fabric instead of laundering it, does it still produce the waffle effect? From the photos it looks interesting as a flat fabric too.
F|S Team
The waffle plumps up with washing, since dry cleaning generally involves pressing it would not have the same effect but to be sure you would want to take a piece to the dry cleaner to make sure their process will keep the waffle flat.
Is the fabric absorbent? We are sick of towels that are not absorbent.
F|S Team
Based on our tests and customer reviews our waffle linen/cotton is very absorbent.

How wide is this linen
F|S Team
This linen is 84" wide before washing.
The first time I bought this fabric was from the Doggie Bags. I made a couple of bath towels and some smaller towels. It washed up nice and tight and nubby. We really liked it, so next time I saw it on sale I bought enough for 4 bath towels. This batch didn't shrink up nearly as tight and nubby as the first batch. I was disappointed but can't really do anything about it since it's been washed and cut.
F|S Team
Hello, We're sorry fi you're latest batch hasn't shrunk up as much as your first. We haven't experienced any difference in shrinkage, so you may need to wash the towels again to ensure they're completely shrunk. They may also need more room in the wash to completely submerge in water too, which helps activate the shrinkage. Please email us directly if your towels are still refusing to shrink up, we'd be happy to investigate further.
This is my first order with The Fabric-Store. Great fabric and excellent shipping. I can't wait to order more!! Thank you.
After making curtains - they were too long- I cut off the bottoms, doubled over, I left the pieces on the floor, and when I returned, Sylester the cat was asleep on the small pieces. He will not give them up to the other two cats. So I am purchasing another yard, to make him a proper bed.
This fabric is so easy to sew on and it's very forgiving, as a little crooked or uneven seam doesn't show a bit! It's delightful waiting for it to come out of the dryer and see how it transforms. Absolutely love all of your linens and I think I've tried every type.
It is so soft! I made it a throw for my bed, Now it is my most comfy blankie.
I made this for my daughter's MIL so didn't add belt loops. I'll include them when mailing so she can add them to her waist length. Capucine pattern included yardage to use after pre washing the fabric so sizing was not a guess. I added linen facing to make it special and...longer to construct.
And this is Sylvester, happy on his waffle bed.
FS CAPUCINE Bathrobe made with FS PEBBLE Waffle Weave. Washing both shrinks and forms the texture of waffle weave linen. For this reason, I would recommend sizing up on the pattern to make sure you don't end up with sleeves that are too short.
Perfect summer-weight blanket. 3 yards of Pebble - washed, dried, and 3/4" hem.
My showcase in Waynesville, NC at the Wildflour Blue Bakery. I just set up this morning. These items will be there until July 14, or until I run out of inventory.
