4C22 OPTIC WHITE Softened - 100% Linen - Heavy (7.1 oz/yd²)

I would be happy to review this fabric, but I haven't received it and I have had no notice of shipment. You charged my card back in April.

Thank you for sending in your inquiry here and to our main email. We have sent an email to you with an update on the status of your order, which is still in transit with the carrier. If you did not receive the update that was emailed, please let us know so we can send it again. We look forward to your review once the linen has arrived.

I use it Fabric Store linen extensively for my embroidery projects sold on my Etsy shop (AdaliaSeasonalDecor.Etsy.com). While I often use IL019 signature finish, I reach for the 4C22 when I'm embroidering a design with more intensive stitching and it makes beautiful decorative pillows and table runners.

I got a scrap of this fabric to try for cross stitch. The weft and wrap are not even, so my crosses are rectangular rather than square, but it goes well with the pattern and so much more affordable than cross stitch linen. I tried dying it before stitching and it dyes beautifully and looks great after it dryed. I highly recommend this fabric for cross stitch, and would love it if there was something just like it but with even ct weft and wrap (36 or 38 ct would be perfect).

Hi! Happy to hear the cloth worked out for your project. We do have a linen that is engineered specifically for embroidery with an even warp/weft count of 49. Just search for 1C64 or copy/paste this link: fabrics-store.com/all-fabrics?article=1C64

I made bath towels out of this fabric. My son is moving out and I'm giving him my old towels. I double-folded and hemmed the edges and mitered the corners. They turned out great. They are absorbent, dry quickly and look nice hanging. I bought some other colors to make shirts. I love this fabric.

Bought this linen to make bath sheets and bath mats and worked perfectly. I have had the towels over a year now and they still look brand new. I love how this material absorbs a lot water however dries quickly and does not get musky. This particular linen 42CC is not the softest of them all, but I enjoy the "scrub" feeling you get while drying out with it.

I made the duvet cover that is pictured on the website. I ordered the heavy weight Optic White. Washing it first, and drying it in the dryer it comes out so soft and beautiful. It irons well if that is the look you are wanting. After constructing the cover, it lays beautifully on my bed. I absolutely love the outcome!!

This fabric is exactly as described, soft to touch and becomes softer with every wash. Out from 6 yards I was able to make 2 bath sheets, 2 bath towels 2 bath maths and 3 small bento bags. Everything is addorable and I can't wait to get more of this fabric. I got Optic White which was exactly as pictured.

I'm repeat customer, I really love this linen. Beautiful texture and easy to work with. Thank you. Customer service is always great!!!

I bought this to make a set of hemstitched, monogrammed napkins as a gift for a friend. The linen is a sumptuous weight, and has a very nice hand. The napkins turned out beautifully, in part because of the quality of the fabric. Now, I want to make a set for myself!

I could hardly wait for my fabric to arrive, daily checking the tracking information anticipating its arrival! OMG, it arrived today! I'm SO happy it's early! All of the linen purchased from Fabrics-Store.com is beautiful-- this one did not disappoint! This fabric has a beautiful hand after washing and ironing. This bright white linen will be used to make slacks, skirts and shorts for a year-end cruise wardrobe with my husband of 33 years! I've made numerous purchases of this linen in various colors to be used for simple tops and dresses. Creating my own wardrobe is giving me endless wardrobe possibilities using basic patterns! Fabrics-Store.com, thank you for making sewing fun again with amazing fabrics!

I make custom embroidered clergy stoles. I prefer using Linen from Fabrics-store, usually heavy linen like this. This fabric is a real, pure, bright white, and a perfect weight for my use. Love the linen here - great quality, and great value! Deborah

This fabric is outstanding! I made a fabulous pair of harem-style pants and the drape was perfect. I pre-washed the linen, which I usually don't do, and the fabric looked great without even ironing it. Love the look! Every time I wear my pants, I get compliments. I am ordering a Doggie Bag piece to make an Optic White hat. I am hooked on this linen because of the quality and price; (not crazy about the cost of postage though). However, Fabric-Store does offer the best linen that I have come across. I have been recommending it to others who sew.

Purchased 5 yards to make a shower curtain. Lovely material to sew, delighted with the shower curtain

Love love this heavy weight linen. It washes up soft with a nice drape to it. I've made pants & skirts with it, it's perfect that it's not see through.

I have used this for wedding table cloths, dishcloths and napkins. Beautiful, heavy weight, washes up to a nice rustic texture. Although its isn't completely stark white, it is definitely a pure white.

This is not rustic, in my opinion. It's very soft and smooth for linen. Good drape, good weight. It's a bit slippery, so I needed to use a lot of pins when sewing it. I used it for drapes, and now with all that I ordered, I'm going to make slipcovers for the headboard of my bed and guest bed and a tablecloth. Looks like very expensive fabric!

This is beautiful fabric! I was expecting it to have more slubs and be more rustic. This is GORGEOUS and has that lovely sheen that will make my projects look very expensive and high quality. I never expected something of this quality at such reasonable cost.

After I had soem issues with a different fabric I rodered before, mostly to do with me not being an "expert". I was looking for a pure white linen and I mean very white, this oen was recommended but remommented to whiten it a little adn it WORKED! Made me most beautiful linen towels. Thank you Maureen for you help you definately made it up for the not so good experience I had the first time! First Class!

Love the feel of this linen. I plan on making dining room chair covers with this great buy. This linen is heavy enough that you cannot see through it and will stand up as a great cover. Haven't decided what kind of trim I will use but hope to post my finished project. I may also decide to paint on this great fabric.
