IL020 BLEACHED - 100% Linen - Light (3.5 oz/yd2)
At a lighter weight of 3.5 ounces this 100% linen is woven with finer threads to give it a smoother appearance. Referred to as lightweight or handkerchief linen, this fine, but surprisingly sturdy linen brings new meaning to the term "sheer elegance".

I´ve been using linen from Fabrics-store.com for more than 10 years. The quality is hard to beat. Most recently i´ve started making caps and bonnets that are inspired by the Handmaid´s Tale tv show. This tissue weight is perfect in the optic white. It gives the bonnets a translucency that you see in the tv show. I love it. And will keep ordering. Also, they are super helpful. Last night i placed an order with the wrong shipping address. Within minutes Maureen had it fixed! Thank you so much! Love this place!!
Pretty fabric. Was received just as described. Held up well after washing in hot water, then drying. Will make great cocktail napkins.
While the fabric was the exact weight I needed, the color was not. I though I would be safe ordering a full bolt with a description that indicated it is a bleached white, but NOOOOO. It is pale ivory, not true white, and I cannot return it. Very costly assumption that I did not need to order a swatch of a white fabric to check the color.
This linen was recommended to me by other costume reenactors as an excellent one to use for making my 1700s chemise. It was stiff on arrival but after only washing one time, it was soft enough to wear under my clothes. I will be buying more when needed, and I'm recommending it to others.
We ordered a bolt, and in going over the "to-do" list, I realized we could use another 10 yards or so. We are members of the SCA, and are always pleased with your quality. The hanky linen works for my cotehardies and my husband's Japanese garments, and we often order in tandem. Keep up the good work!
I am disappointed in the coloring of this fabric. I am fine with the weight and have ordered before and will again as the quality is excellent. I expected a "White" fabric but it is an off white or yellow white
The linen I received was not the handkerchief linen but a heavier weight that I just gave away because it would not fit the projects that I had wanted it for,. Mine was this number but It was not a thinner linen but a heavier and much stiffer one, even after I washed it.
I've had my linen now over a year. It gets softer and softer with every wash. It took me a while to settle on this product, as I was torn between 1C64's amazing quality and the softness that this sheer linen had to offer. I'm so glad I chose this! It's super smooth. I'm also getting ready to make this into sheer curtains for my bedroom and it's just truly elegant to look at when the sun is bright shinning into the room (I used my sheets on the curtain rod as a sample). This linen is an off white and has a softer effect than your optic; it's easy on your eyes when your turning in for the night. It's one of many of my favorites and even though I ordered a bolt, 20 yards worth, I'll be ordering again and again I'm sure.
I wanted to recreate a linen dress that I purchased but could not find any more like it.The fabric in all of the stores in my area in Florida was a joke. One fabric store recommended I go online. I purchased one time and I was so happy I purchased three more times. I am very, very thrilled with the quality, colors and pricing of the fabric.
I order the bleached linen for smocks and medieval accessories, such as coifs and hoods. When you are camping for two weeks in the summer, in a medieval style camp, there is NOTHING like putting on a clean, fresh under dress! Many people eschew long sleeves in the heat of summer. I actually prefer linen sleeves to wearing nothing, as the linen works well to wick heat and moisture from the skin, while giving some protection from the glare of the sun. I find this linen to be nice and soft, and it is always a pleasure to work with!
Love this fabric and use it all the time, but the "bleached white" color name is a little misleading. It is much closer to ivory than white, which when I complained was explained to me by the company as "like natural bleached muslin". Though this is beautiful for period clothing, if you want a true white you need to order the optic white.
I have been looking for this fabric for a long time and just can't find it locally. I LOVE it! It was very easy to work with and just gets softer every time I wash it. At 57 inches wide I think it is a great value and I know I will be ordering more.I am using it for a chemise under a costume You just can't go wrong with this.
As a professional seamstress, I regularly make costumes for Renaissance Festival performers and other sorts of historical reinactment. This is the linen that I recommend for shirts, chemises and bloomers for comfort and authentic-looking style. This washes up so beautifully, especially using the trick of washing it in just a teaspoon of Dawn dishwashing liquid, which removes the oils and allows the fabric to wrinkle less. The weave is even and is a dream to cut and stitch. Fabrics-store.com is my go-to for linen.
This is the first time I have ordered fabric from Fabrics - Store.com, and will definitely NOT be the last! I used my IL020 linen to make a simple half- slip, and it is a pleasure to wear. The linen is soft, breathable and just perfect in every way. Super - easy to work with, too. Thank you!
In early 2012 I bought this fabric to make a one of a kind special order christening dress, slip and bonnet that was embellished with drawn thread work, hemstitching, Ayrshire embroidery, hand sewn tucks and antique bobbin lace. It was a bit stiff when it arrived but after several washings, it was very soft. It was a dream fabric on which to do the various kinds of handwork which I did with preshrunk linen threads. I was surprised at how little it shrunk as compared with linen I bought in Sweden the year before for some handwork. I would recommend it to anyone doing fine handwork for heirloom clothing or decorative items.
I made queen sized top and bottom sheets (both flat to rotate and distribute the wear) and three pillowcases. I purchased 13 yards to allow for shrinkage and straightening the ends. I used full width lengths down the center of the bed, allowing the flat felled seams to lie on or close to the edges of the mattress. I cut the side pieces so the selvages would form the outer edges and used the remaining linen from the center to make the pillowcases. They turned out better than I expected and are just perfect for summer in our older house without air conditioning.
Love, love this linen! I have purchased three different weights from this company and while I loved them all, this one is the absolute favorite of mine. Light, breathable, and perfect for so many things! I will be making some pantaloons with lace with this latest purchase, but will be needing more for lightweight blouses or tunics for the hot Summer days ahead. I am quite pleased with the quality.
I've used this linen to make several 18th century men's shirts and the results have been awesome! A high quality fabric and a great price.
This fabric was a real hit at my bobbin lace class. It is not easy to find handkerchief weight linen and we were all pleased with the quality of the two white fabrics I brought in. I believe a couple classmates went on to take advantage of the nice range of colors offered. The price is beyond amazing as well.
I am a repeat customer from Australia and Very Happy with the IL020. It sews beautifully and I love the natural colour. I will be ordering in 20 yd lot next when it is available. Love your Linen.
The prices are great, I don't mind ordering in whole yards. If I have linen laying around I end up using in another project.
I am giving up on this company because they won't cut any half yards. One has to order fabric in whole yards.
When you combine top quality linen, great prices and excellent customer service, you have got a winner. I have been purchasing linen in the 3 oz and 5 oz weights from fabrics-store for 6 years and it's consistently been a pleasure both in order process and after receipt.
This linen is fairly slubby, but its bright white and light to medium in hand at a great price! It's pretty soft on the skin once washed, it continues to get softer. It appears to be a chinese linen as it has a short fiber length, but the price is right!! I have used this for many an italian chemise, hats, linings, sleeves and more. At this price, its not too heavy but not heavy enough for breeches, but it would be ok, for braies (underwear) and any long wearing linen garment. I haven't tried dying it just yet, be sure to get a \"reactive\" dye for plant fibers if you do.
I had never ordered from this company before so didn't know what to expect. I trusted the reviews of my fellow reenactors and am glad I did. This linen is fabulous. Way better than any I have bought from my local fabric store. Plus, I can trust that it is 100% linen, unlike my local fabric store who is known for mislabeling linen blends as 100%. I am now an enthusiastic customer who plans to buy from this company again and again!! I've also recommended this store to some others I know who sew reenactment clothing.
I bought this linen to make an under-kamiz. It is really transparent, so this is definitely for under-garments. It came pretty stiff and a loose weave, but it softened a bit through the laundering process. I'm almost done hand-sewing the garment and it is a marvelous material to hand-sew. I am hooked on this type of linen and will be purchasing the thicker weight for other garments. The shipping of this fabric was incredibly quick and the price is great. I've been referring friends!
I am unable to get this type of linen in Australia, so I have to buy via the internet. I have bought two lots of this linen so far and I am about to buy the 20 yard special. Even though it costs alot for postage, this fabric is worth it, it makes the most comfortable chemises. It just gets better with each wearing and washing. Very happy repeat customer.
I could cuddle up to this all day! I'm using this for my latest Elizabethan smock (chemise)- the old one was cotton batiste, and this linen is so much better! I've never seen a better price for linen of this weight (when not purchased in bulk, at least), especially not locally.
This is just excellent linen at the price. Perfect for making reenactment shirts. I was a little scared when it first arrived because it was so stiff and the weave was loose. But don't worry, the weave tightened with one washing and this linen just gets softer and softer every time you wash it.
I made nightgowns for myself and my daughter and I just wnat to live in them all day long. I adore this fabri. I wish they sold 20 yard discount bolts of this weight! It is a bit see through, but for underclothing and nightgowns, this is just perfect.
This was great for an 18th century man's shirt. I will order more for more shirts and chemises.
I really like this for my summer 18thC shift, and plan to make my early 19thC shifts from it as well, as the linen breathes better than cotton. Great price on a lovely sheer linen. Excellent smooth selvedge, makes great caps too!
A beautiful linen for Renaissance Faire chemises, though I think next time I would go one weight higher. This weight is *just* this side of see-through. :)
IL020 is lightweight 100% linen. It is ideal for all of your sheer applications and is a see-through marvel. Regardless of its use, we are sure that this is by far the best priced lightweight 100% linen you will ever come across.
Hemstitched handkerchief for a gentleman; hand sewn, using handkerchief weight bleached linen! Not quite a breeze to draw the threads after laundering but not terrible either. Do launder first though as there's a bit of shrinkage. Fabric has a fairly firm hand, not rough per se but sturdy... it will soften over time no doubt. I like it, definitely a 'bloke' fabric - I use the softened version in optic white for ladies handkerchiefs...
Hand-dyed and silk-screened Challah cover. Uses the bleached lightweight linen IL020. Designs by Kevin Cain were inspired by the illuminated border designs found in the Kennicott Bible. Made in Spain, this Bible, dating from 1476, is considered the finest Hebrew manuscript in the collection of the Bodleian Library at the University of Oxford. etsy.com/listing/158450671/challah-cover-hand-dyed-silkscreened
Here are pictures of a period gown I made using your linen for the under sleeve. Please notice that I used vintage lace for the trim on the sleeve cuffs. This customer was tickeled and recieved many compliments of the authenticity of her costume. The occassion was the laying of the wreath at the grave of President Jefferson Davis, Hollywood Cemetary, Richmond,Va Patricia
I embroidered my daughter's coif with this lovely fabric, and also used it for the ruffs that I made for our participation in Kentwell's 1588 reenactment during the summer of 2008. I was very happy with how the ruffs held up and received many compliments on the linen garments that we wore. Our smocks were also of the same fabric, but of course you cannot see much of them.
The close up detail is free motion machine stitching on the front band of the jacket. I lower the feed dogs on my sewing machine and use a darning foot and just move the fabric with my hands. It's like drawing with thread. This is what many quilters do on their quilts. Since I don't have batting like quilts have in the front band, (which prevents puckering), I put the part that I am sewing in an embroidery hoop to hold the fabric taught while I draw with thread.

Jenn recommended you all when I started getting into costuming and was a bit frightened of purchasing let alone cutting linen. Well your prices were so reasonable I didn't have a (complete) heartattack ordering or cutting into it once I got it. I have since ordered many times and LOVE everything I get. For me I used the 3.5 oz linen used for the gomlek (chemise) with the 5.3oz used for the blue chirka (coat)as well as the rust colored one underneath it. Great stuff and service! Thanks!
I've opted for fitted low-necked white 100% linen smock and the slashes in the under sleeves are stitched in place so it's not necessary to constantly be pulling them through. I believe they did this in period- if you look at her wrist closely in the portrait you can see the smock sleeve is narrow and fitted and the ruffle/cuff is wider and lightly gathered to fit the wrist, but the under sleeves are wider than the smock sleeve even at the wrist, suggesting that the under sleeve did have faux slashes. The neckline is accented with hand-done blanket stitching (Although hard to see in this size picture of the portrait, her chemise neckline is the same as Jane Seymour's below. The cuff was gathered to the smock and the cuff hem was finished by hand so as no machine stitching was visible. The smock itself was made based on instructions on Drea Leed's site, with dropped shoulders and underarm and hip gores.
Bonnet and cap inspired by the Handmaid's Tale Wings. Both made of the Optic White.
