IL019 All-purpose Evergreen Softened - 100% Linen Fabric - Medium (5.3 oz/yd2), Width 58"
Evergreen Linen’s deep, rustic green brought intensity and depth into William Holman Hunt’s mythological scenes, whether indoors or out, invoking in them the awe and wonder of the English landscape.
A leader in the Pre-Raphaelite school of painting, Hunt looked back to the innocence of medieval times, when art was more closely tied to the natural world; as a result, his colors and subjects seem to be pulled straight out of the ground. Greens from all shades of the spectrum filled his heady canvases, imbuing them with a rich, mysterious glow.
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).

Hi! I'm trying to decide on a green, and have narrowed it to Emerald, Evergreen and Dusty Lotus. Can you give me a comparison description of these 3? What is the base color? Does it lean toward yellow or blue I guess is what I mean. I don't really do anything with a yellow tint so any info would be helpful. Thanks!

Hello, You may want to get some samples of each of these green to see for yourself. Otherwise, I would say that Emerald would be the one with the blue base :)
I got a sample "emerald" with the same article number and oz. Is emerald and evergreen the same color?

Currently we are out of emerald in the IL019. Evergreen is not the same shade.
Is the skirt pictured by Jeanette one of FS patterns? I'd like to make this skirt! fabrics-store.com/images/grmtgallery/1184s.jpg

Unfortunately not this was either the customers design or a pattern from another vendor.
I *love* this linen! I paired this with IL019 Royal Purple (front chest piece), IL020 Bleached White (the white part of the back piece), and IL019 Royal Blue ("river" on the back piece). This is made in the style of a 15th Century caparison and it is SO perfect. I lined both the front & back pieces with 4C22 Royal Blue and the flow of it is just perfect. VERY Medieval. The color is vibrant and I couldn't ask for a better linen.
