IL019 All-purpose Blue Bonnet Softened - 100% Linen Fabric - Medium (5.3 oz/yd2), Width 58"
The cold, blue silence of BLUE BONNET Linen hovers like a thick mist through Edvard Munch's paintings, investing his artworks with a mysterious, pervading ennui. Munch's Expressionist and Symbolist drawings, paintings and prints captured the changing spirit of the early 20th century.
Quiet, understated blues allowed Munch to convey this shadowy world of the unknown, so filled with anticipation and intrigue, as his solemn figures gaze hopefully and fearfully towards the future.
At a medium weight of 5.3 ounces this 58 inch wide 100% linen is versatile enough to be referred to as an All Purpose or Do it All linen. With its smooth look and tighter weave, this linen is neither sheer or heavy, but just the right in-between weight you will need for a variety of projects.
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).

Hello, You can find our yardage charts in our size guide. Yardages are listed for each view and size.
Lovely color in this workhorse fabric!
I brought this for boomers for granddaughters,it's really soft and I think their mom is going to love them.
I am using this for a costume for a production. Working with this fabric is amazing. And I love the color.
I used 2 yards to make this in size medium. I washed in cold water and machine dried twice before cutting it out. I overlocked the raw edges before washing. This is a simple pattern with no buttons or zippers. The linen drapes well and stands away from the body, perfect for those hot, humid days.
washes up beautifully
Can't wait to get started with this fabric. It washes up beautifully - cold water/handwash cycle. Then I popped it in the dryer on extra low. It's just lovely. Can't wait to lay out the pattern and get started. This weekend's project!
Elizabeth Suzann Georgia Dress in bluebonnet linen
This is a gown I made for my friend using the JP Ryan Robe Anglaise (English gown) pattern. I don't sew commercially, just as a hobby, and this was one of my first efforts.

All three are gorgeous shades.
Riva back by Cindy
I bought Bluebonnet on sale in doggie bag and made the sleeves less version of the Riva pattern. I shorten the back and the fit is perfect! This fabric is a beautiful color and has a really nice drape! Glad I gave it a chance!
