4C22 MIX NATURAL - 100% Linen - Heavy (7.1 oz/yd2)
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.

I used 4C22 Mix Natural to make the Akira wrap pattern into a robe (I made the pattern longer). It's perfect. This fabric feels luscious and I will be making many more things with it. Truly the best robe ever. I can't wait to make the capris and a cardigan and anything else I can think of using this fabric.
I order bolts of this fabric quite regularly, however the past few rolls were so stiff and slubby - not impressed! There were also lots of little fibers poking out, it's no comparison to the bolts I previously purchased! I'd like to continue purchasing bolts, but if they continue to come like this, I may need to find them elsewhere.
Ordered two yards to make bath towels - start simple. The hand after washing in hot water and drying on high is beautiful! Get these towels done and move on to garments. The customer service was outstanding. The lady gave me the impression she cared. Appreciate that very much. Blessings - Colleen
This is such a beautiful fabric that goes with everything!
I am so thrilled with this fabric, it is stunning quality and so easy to work with. Will definitely be ordering more soon!!!!
So happy I can make tops & sun dresses out of this heavy weight and not have to worry about wearing a camisole ! Southeast Texas humidity is brutal . This weight is a winner.
I purchased the natural linen to make a cross back apron. This linen is amazing , I told my friend it was like butter so easy to sew on the curves of the apron. This by far the nicest linen fabric I have used.
This linen 4C22, mix natural linen, is much better than I expected. The color is a bit lighter than I thought the picture showed, which I really like. The texture and weight is just perfect for the dining room inverted pleat curtains I plan to make. I wouldn't hesitate to order this again, or anything on this website!
I cannot sing the praises of this Mix Natural fabric enough. It's the one I keep coming back to month after month because of its colour, texture and weight. My first project was a pair of wide-legged pants which look fabulous and are a dream to wear. My next project was a duvet cover to which I added a panel of rich brown for interest. It simply gets better with age and is a delight to sleep under. I recently went through my off-cuts and found enough to make two large tea towels, as we call them in Canada. I believe they are called kitchen towels in the USA. I had already been using tea towels made from the all-purpose weight linen and thought they were fantastic compared to store bought towels. The new towels made of 4C22 blow these guys out of the water. Is there anything this fabric cannot do?!
I made a pair of summer pants out of this. Super comfortable! And they go with absolutely everything. Highly recommend!
Purchased specifically for making bath towels and I LOVE them. I have arthritis and the light wt makes them perfect for drying.
I have ordered this beautiful fabric a few times and am very impressed with the consistency in colour and quality. Love it!
I think that this is just about my favorite linen offered here, I made several towels out of it as my first project and they turned out much better than I imagined they would! After washing and drying a few times, I made the towels and it was not hard to adjust to using these instead of terrycloth...they are very absorbent and dry so quickly! I love the color of Mix Natural, it seems to be so versatile for so many projects...it is nice to have on hand when the urge to create something strikes!
This fabric is lovely. It was exactly what I was hoping for. Natural, rough linen...love it!
I love this fabric and keep buying more. I moved into new house and used this fabric for all of my new drapes.
This is my first time buying the heavier linen and I love it. I've pre-shrunk it by laundering in a hot wash and hot dryer four times. I estimate shrinkage to be 10% - 12% which is as expected. The fabric has softened considerably over the launderings and the look has just gotten better with each go-round. The hand is not quite as supple and smooth as the softened version (I also bought the heavier weight in softened Heather) so you may want to opt for pre-softened if this is important to you. Be forewarned that a lot of lint is produced when drying this fabric. You will need to check the dryer lint screen frequently to avoid an unsafe build-up of fluff. The amount of lint does lessen with subsequent launderings however I found that even during the fourth drying there was still a significant amount of it. I bought this fabric to make pants and love it so much I will be buying more to make a duvet cover and several other pieces of clothing.
I've had others of the 4C22 fabrics, and this is by far my favorite. It's the perfect neutral, and the mixed threads give it dimension and interest. Has a wonderful drape, as you would expect. I'll try to post a picture of my bias skirt I just made, as well as a close-up of the fabric.
I bought this to make linen bath sheets, and they are wonderful! I wanted them large so I cut 2 yard lengths, serged the cut ends and washed them to get rid of any shrinkage, I hung the fabric to air dry. When I hemmed the fabric I did a 2" double hem on all sides, and put a large 2" wide loop for hanging in the middle of one side seam. My brother was visiting and gave me a funny look when I handed him one on his way to the shower, now he can't stop raving about them and wants me to make him 4 for his house! I told him to order the linen and have it shipped to me and I would make them. Since I ordered 10 yard I still have plenty for a couple more bath sheets and tea towels, then I will have to order more!
Inspired by another reviewer, Janice, I decided to go for it and reupholster a love seat in the 4C22 Mix Natural. I love it!!! The fabric washed and dried beautifully, and it truly is a joy to work with. What a versatile color this is, too. It goes with everything - from greys to light beige, and every color in the rainbow. Since I wasn't sure how much I would need for my project, I erred on the side of caution and ordered 10 yards. Still have a couple of yards left, so I'm thinking I'll cover a footstool or two.
All my linen needs are met with this company, they are fabulous! After receiving my order of mixed natural, I immediately serged both ends and put it through the wash and dry process. It came out gorgeous, as always. Linen is absolutely wonderful to wear in all seasons here in the Great Northwest, but I've decided this batch will be turned into a beautiful whole cloth quilt just as soon as I get done with my current project. I have many different machines in my shop, but if you are into embroidery, these fabrics take the stitches remarkably well, but I always wash and dry first!
I absolutely love Mix Natural. It is the perfect neutral, and I recently "upgraded" to the 4C22 heavyweight after using the ILO19 weight for a long time. It has just a bit more body but is still a fine weave with a lovely finish and soft lustre. Irons beautifully, washes beautifully, just all-around wonderful.
This is a beautiful fabric, the color is perfect and the texture is great. Using for sofa slipcover and pillow covers. I would definitely recommend and order more.
Love this fabric! It was exactly what I needed to upholster a chair and love the weight and body of this. I will order again soon!
I bought two cute club chairs from an estate sale. The chairs were the same brand as my slipcover sofas. So I know they were a great deal at 100.00 each. I hated the two slipcovers that came with the chairs. I searched the Internet and after reading the reviews abt this linen and shopping at local fabric stores, I realized this was a bargain. Well, I ordered 17 yds in the 4C22 softened linen. lWhen it arrived, I was truly amazed how beautiful it was. I washed and dried and washed and dryer (cut the yardage in half). The fabric does shrink and lots of dryer fuzz, but the results were great. I started watching u tube videos on miss mustard seed website and I thought I could tackle this! (The lady that usually makes slipcovers for me was busy until after the holidays). I am happy to show you one of the chairs. The first pic is the \"other\" Chair and the second one is the 4C22 softened fabric. (Not sure of the difference between the softened and unsoftened, especially if it wash it before sewing. Love this fabric.
After looking for linen curtain panels in my town and realizing they would cost me at a minimum...$169 each, I went online and found this wonderful site! After scrolling through many pages of beautiful linens with excellent descriptions, color swatches, and reviews, I settled on 13 yds of this linen. I am thrilled with the finished product! My panels are custom length (101 inches), the perfect color (which wasn't available in any of the stores) and the total bill for my fabric was $132. Boom! I'll be telling everyone about this fabulous resource I've lucked upon. Thinking of opening an Etsy shop with all things linen!
I love this fabric. The weight is perfect, and the mix color is perfect for many different things. I keep a couple of yards on hand as it is such a good basic
I (with help from FS Customer Service) chose this fabric to create linen bath towels. I'd seen some in a catalog that got amazing reviews yet they were incredibly expensive. So what's a sewist to do?! Make my own of course! I cut and sewed the cross grain edges leaving the selvedge as is, prior to washing. After two washings they are soft and as lovely as I had hoped they would be! 2 yards netted me 2 bath towels.
I love everything about this fabric, the weight, the color, the drape. I had some small pieces left from my bed skirt and used it to make 6" cocktail napkins. I will order more to make some placemats.
VERY GOOD FABRIC. I WANT MORE
On the 14th I ordered Mix Natural 4C22. The order has arrived and I am very happy with the fabric and the wonderful customer service. Thank you. I will be placing more orders with pleasure
I used one yard of DB 4C22 MIX NATURAL to reupholster 3 forgotten-about teak dining chairs that were in my parent's garage. This linen fabric was very easy to work with, and the results were spectacular. I chose this particular linen because I was working with upholstery and I needed a heavy fabric. The shade of linen is very light, but these aren't everyday dining chairs. We are really happy with the way they turned out.
Not quite done but I thought it would be fun to post this Work in Progress. I bought the fabric without a clear idea of what I'd do with it, it just looked interesting. Then it hit me-- my favorite J.Crew tote bag with leather trim is too old and shabby to use, so I need to make it new again! I decided to swap out all the original cotton fabric for this oatmeal-color heavy linen. Et voila! I'm so excited about having my best tote back in action. BTW, I'm kidding about swapping out all the fabric. I've remade it from scratch, using the leather bits and hardware off the J.Crew bag.
