IL019 BLUE HEAVEN Softened - 100% Linen - Middle (5.3 oz/yd2)
The misty turquoise of BLUE HEAVEN Linen
defined the art of 19th century French Symbolist Pierre Puvis de
Chavannes, forming distant mountains, hazy shadows or endlessly
entrancing blue water.
When France was facing political turmoil
after
the Franco-Prussian War, Puvis' mystical, icy blue scenes suggested a
a wondrous, escapist world beyond our own to disappear into. His pared
back color schemes and clean, pure lines are the essence of
sophisticated refinement, for which he argues, "the simplest conception
proves to be the most beautiful."
At a medium weight of 5.3 ounces, this 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.

Love it
The 2nd time I've ordered this IL019 linen and I'll probably be ordering other colors too. I ordered extra so I could make an infinity scarf with frayed edges and it turned out beautifully. It keeps it's fluffiness while you wear it so it stays fluffy around your neck, plus it gives warmth while being lightweight and breathable. Also made a tunic.
Heavenly linen
I purchased a bolt of this lovely medium-light blue linen last summer, for an 18th century reenactment event that takes place at my dad's childhood home. It was the perfect color and weight for my new shortgown and petticoat, neither a wimpy baby blue nor the royal blues that I tend to gravitate toward. Now I'm using more of it for a Viking serk I'll wear in the SCA, and then I'll use some for a fitted undergown for under a côtehardie, also in the SCA. I hope you still have it when I run out!
Another big fan!
This color is gorgeous BUT also perfectly suited for boys. No matter how I drape it, it takes on the persona of its utility. It reminds me of indigo. Wrap it around you and cinch it with an old leather belt and it looks like faded denim but drape it over white lace and it's a beautiful turquoise-y color. Everybody should snag some for themselves, just to play with. It's just an amazing color.
Gorgeous color and very soft
I used this linen to make a Geranium Dress for a friend's 2 year old daughter. It was a dream to work with and I am in love with the color.

This linen is a very versatile weight like all IL019 linens. The blue is lovely but it is different in person, more aqua. If you need a very specific color, get a sample.
Gorgeous shade of blue
Beautiful blue and a lovely hand. Made a dress with it after washing for my etsy store.
Gorgeous blue
I love this color blue. As I stated in a review for the Asphalt colorway in same linen, it washes well, does not wrinkle like most linen, and is just the perfect weight for any clothing, including pants.
very relaxing color!
I will be using this linen and other pieces I have purchased to make pillow cases for our guest bed. I really enjoy sewing by hand and by machine and using this fabric because it behaves so beautifully. Thanks.
The perfect medium blue
Making baby carriers, the perfect tone of blue can be elusive. This has enough grey to tone down what would otherwise be "Baby" Boy Blue while still being blue enough that it's not mistaken from grey. When Ethereal blue was discontinued, I was very disappointed. But now having switched to this almost wedgewood color of blue, I've decided I like this even better
Great Fabric!
Shipping was prompt, color was exactly as pictured, the quality is excellent, and the more I wash it, the softer it gets! Will definitely be purchasing more soon!
Nice
This linen is perfect for making ring slings and the color pictured is mostly accurate but a little darker and muted than the actual linen. Perfect linen for Roanoke Ring Slings!
Color is beautiful
Haven't sewn this up yet but it is just gorgeous fabric. The color is beautiful and the hand is firm without being stiff. Don't know what I am going to make from it yet
Lovely fabric to make this 30s style dress with, skirt cut on the bias gives a beautiful drape. The sleeves and belt are made of the sheer grey mist linen, which works really well with the colour of the blue haven.
Geranium Dress
Tea towel is heavy weight 4C22 in Bleached Softened. Embroidery towel tip is IL019 in Blue Heaven. I'm very pleased with the results. Gorgeous linen fabric!

Heaven Blue & Monument: Baby's Texture Taggy Quilt. This blue is awesome. The FS Swatch Photo does not do it justice...it's brighter. But not "too" bright!
Love this linen! I purchased it at 35% discount which made it a steal. Makes beautiful clothing. My own pattern, modified from a shirtdress pattern from Bootstrap Fashions. theaddledcreative.com
Purchased this fabric while it was offered at a 35% savings, wish I would have bought more! It's a beautiful shade of blue that works with so many different colors.
