IL019 All-purpose Sphinx Fs Signature Finish - 100% Linen Fabric - Medium (5.3 oz/yd2), Width 58"
A vibrant dark teal shade that makes you wonder if it's blue or green. SPHINX linen's exotic jewel tone unfurls across Inka Essenhigh's evocative paintings,
investing sublime oceanic depths or mysterious forests with a haunting,
glowing aura. Fantastically surreal, her exquisitely detailed,
atmospheric scenes collapse together natural and synthetic worlds,
conveying lush, fervent landscapes populated by sprites and fairies,
scenes painted with supernatural colours and the emanating light of the
cinema screen.
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.

Hello! Do you know if complaints of splotchy dye jobs have since been investigated/resolved? I see they are over 5 years ago.
F|S Team
Yes, this was investigated and resolved. The issue was not with our fabrics, but with the washing. Some detergents or pods can sit on the fabric and create these stains if there is not enough water to dissolve them during the wash or are applied directly onto the fabric and contain oxidizing agents or stain removers. Be sure to follow our recommended washing instructions to avoid this.
Stunning color. No issues at all with washing/fading (I used target brand detergent with warm water.)
Very Rough Texture
I have purchased dozens of yards of 019 Linen in all finishes. The color of this one is beautiful, but it is a very rough texture. I have washed it a half dozen times. I am not sure what to do with it because the texture is so rough. I have noticed the same trend with 4C22.
Absolutely love how this skirt turned out for my daughter. She knots and ask me to make her two skirts to wear with her crop sweaters.
Color is even more stunning than the picture shows. Weight of the fabric is perfect.
Wow, this fabric is just what I wanted. Dense and heavy enough for aprons or dresses but not so heavy that it feels stiff. The color is beautiful and rich even after it's first washing. Love your fabrics!
The coquelicot skirt (view a) from Wildflower Design in IL019 Sphinx. One of my favorite fabrics to work with and such wonderful drape. It makes you just want to twirl all the time.
My daughters skirt. This is the free Peppermint pocket skirt pattern. So excited for her to receive it for her birthday
Made this cocoon style pocketed dress and it is perfect.
I chose FS SPHINX Midweight Linen for the Capucine Robe. I love the result and look forward to many years of snuggling in this wonderful linen robe.
HANA Wrap Top made with FS SPHINX Midweight Linen. I decided to sew the HANA wrap top version out of FS SPHINX Midweight Linen and I'm so glad I chose this color! I don't wear blue often but this one made me want to add blue in my wardrobe.
