4C22 Rustic Optic White Softened - 100% Linen - Heavy (7.1 oz/yd2)
At a heavier weight of 7.1 ounces this 57 inch wide 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.
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
Roman shades what type of fabric to be used
F|S Team
Our customers will use a middleweight linen, such as IL019 or 1C64 if they would like the shade to be smoother in look and feel. If a sturdier more rustic linen is needed they will use the 4C22
I need a bright white (not off white). linen... is this the one?
F|S Team
This is a true bright white.
This linen is listed as "heavy" yet several photos suggest that it is a see-through weave. Is there a heavier, denser white linen? Also, one of the questions and responses suggested that the tint of the Optic White can change from one dye lot to another. Is the current supply a true white white without yellowness or pink (the photo looks faintly pinkish on my tablet)? Thanks so much. I've order with you in that past and was quite happy ... I need heavier and white white linen this time!
F|S Team
The current stock is a true bright white without a yellow or pink tint. Once laundered the weave will tighten. To make sure this weight will work for you we recommend ordering a sample as this is the heaviest bright white we currently offer.
Would this material work well to make white bath towels?
F|S Team
Yes very much so. Bleached is a warmer white so if you need a bright white we offer this linen in Optic White. This is the linen we use for our Bath Towel set Milos which you will find under our pattern section, it's a free PDF download.
Is this really white? I ordered this once beofre and it was an ivory color. I tried bleaching it and it still has a yellow cast. I had ordered this several years ago and it was an entirely different product than what I got the last time I ordered it. So before I order this, please tell me if it is white or ivory. Thank you.
F|S Team
The current stock on this item is a true bright white.
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.

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
This makes amazing towels
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 created this cute easter bunny table runner on 4C22 softened optic white. Such a wonderful fabric to embroider. See it and other embroidered linen table runners at AdaliaSeasonalDecor.Etsy.com.
Just finished this cute Easter bunny tea towel on IL019 optic white signature finish. Such an amazing fabric! See the tea towel at AdaliaSeasonalDecor.Etsy.com.

Fabric is great for Elizabeth Suzann's Georgia top. I expanded the neckline for a better fit on me. Goes with everything and easy for travel. Hand wash, drip dry and ready overnight!
