IL019 All-purpose Royal Purple Fs Signature Finish - 100% Linen Fabric - Medium (5.3 oz/yd2), Width 58"
Our regal Royal Purple still shines as a slightly faded more relaxed version of our classic color. The deep, inky tone of ROYAL PURPLE linen has the warm intensity of a dwindling sunset as the light fades into shadow. This time of day was a favorite with painter Paul Signac, who saw deep purple tones in the shadows around him as the golden sun of his native France began to sink downwards to the ground.
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.
Our FS Signature Finish was developed exclusively for us using a special process that makes this linen super soft with a comfy, classic look you'll love at first sight.
As a bonus, this process removes almost all of the initial shrinkage, giving you more fabric to get your projects done.
This finish makes the linen as soft as butter. Yep, 100% linen that feels and drapes and sews as no linen you have ever encountered. Because the fabric has been pre-shrunk for you - it will be less than the base cloth width.

Such a rich 'royal purple' and so easy to work with the 'signature finish'.
I bought 4 yard of this to make my daughter an outfit. I can just see her in this color. This store is so cost effective, has excellent quality linen and great customer service. You can't go wrong. Remember, the weave of the fabric tightens right up with pre shrinking. I wash & dry 4 X before cutting.
This is beautiful linen, rich color. I cannot find this kind of quality linen in my area. Fabric-store is a wonderful source for this natural fabric.
I bought three yards of this a few months ago and I used it as a throw on my bed. Last week I made it into a robe, using the free pattern. The signature finish is incredibly soft and makes the best robe ever.
This is just my second order. My first order was the natural handkerchief linen. Although this linen was labeled "softened" it arrived stiffer than I wanted for the dress I want to make. So it took 4 wash and dry cycles to soften it so it will drape. The color is beautiful, I just wish it was a little deeper purple: This dress will be machine embroidered with a purple variegated rayon thread. I'm looking forward to seeing how it turns out!
This cross-body handbag is a new style bag that is a bit larger, created with pure linen, and heavily embroidered for beauty and uniqueness. NO ONE ELSE has a bag like this on their shoulder. The rich purple colored bag is made with 100% linen sourced from European and US linen in an environmentally friendly mill. The bag pattern is from Emmaline Bags, the Melissa pattern and the embroidery is kfrom Urban Threads. To purchase your own and other linen handbags, go to fabricartbylinda.etsy.com
I used the wonderful and rich 'royal purple' signature finish linen fabric for the the over dress and cloak. I thought it was an ideal color and fabric for an 'old world' look in creating a girl's Viking, Renaissance, Medieval, etc. costume that could be worn to any festival or faire.

Can't get enough of this Royal Purple! 14th Century Horse Caparisons made with IL019 Royal Purple & IL019 Autumn Gold (trim & lining). The devices are felt appliqué on IL019 Royal Purple (completed by others). This just flows so well and keeps the horses cool (unlike most fabrics used for projects like this). I will definitely keep using this for SCA use. :D Models: Kacey & Moose
