IL090 Black Softened - 100% Linen - Very Heavy (8 oz/yd2)
Darkness pervades Tacita Dean's artworks, falling over craggy rocks and epic mountains into inky, bottomless wells. BLACK Linen shares Dean's endless black, a colour that intensifies mystery and drama, cloaking and concealing everything it touches.
A 57 inch wide heavier linen weighing 8.1 ounces it is referred to as canvas weight , this linen is perfectly suited for projects that require a sturdier yet still fashionable linen.
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).

The most recent order was delivered down at the end of my very long driveway, out of sight behind a gate. Not cool!! It took me days to notice it and retrieve it.

I made a suit jacket from this fabric: Has a nice hand, retained its colour after pre-washing, doesn't wrinkle much. Great quality fabric for such a low price!
I was worried that this fabric might be just a bit too tight after laundering, but it wasn't. Truth be told, it was just tight enough that there was very little fray, and I was still able to easily manipulate corners, etc... I used it to make a men's suitcoat. The tiny places (where pocket welts are pulled through to the back, for example) can be a disaster if the weave doesn't have some substance. Cold water wash and HOT dry, and the lush blackness is still lush blackness. A WONDERFUL fabric, in every respect:)
Self drafted pattern with elastic waist, high rise, side pockets. Love these! Experimenting with hem length...
It was a pleasure to work with this fabric. I laundered it twice (I don't intend on machine washing a suit coat, so I didn't do my usual four linen washes); it hardly wrinkles at all, and it retained its colour! Has a nice hand and is a great weight for a three-season suit. Probably would not go any lighter for a tailored jacket--this, however was perfect.
Ideal fabric for suitcoat! Laundered well, held its rich color, and the weave tightened JUST enough to make the fabric stable to work with. What a pleasure:)
