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

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.
