IL098 Jacquard Loire Natural / Riviera Fs Signature Finish - 100% Linen Fabric - Heavy (7.9 oz/yd2), Width 59"
A decorative interpretation of the Arboreal motif made up of entwined foliage, flowers, acorns, and berries in the Natural - Light Blue color way.
The engineering of this cloth allows the Jacquard to be read equally well from either side - you have a reversible fabric that changes its dominant color scheme depending on what side you pick.
Lying in a haphazard pile at a Parisian flea market was all that remained of a glorious collection of textiles that once graced the halls and environs of Loire castle.
The remnant was pulled from that pile and brought to our studio where we were able to translate the complexity of design and texture to the Jacquard loom, and the 100% linen Loire Collection was created exclusively for F|S.com.
The different weaving techniques utilized to create this fabric make it 3-dimensional - you have a textured cloth that communicates the motif visually and tactilely.
The intricacy of the design permits the cloth to be used in any direction, with the motif maintaining its representation regardless of the angle.
This cloth is 61 inches wide, delicate to the touch, and a heavy weight to last generations.
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.

Customer Questions and Answers
Is your Heavy linen strong enough to stretch over wood frames to make a canvas?

Both our 5.3 and 7.1 ounce linens have3 been used successfully to make canvases so this one at 7.9 ounces should work just as well for the same project.
I bought a yard doggie bag just because it looked so beautiful in the picture. And it is. It has a nice hand and was easy to sew. I made a table scarf for my foyer table and so enjoy it's beauty every time I walk by. The pattern is larger than I expected, but subtle because of the natural linen color and the blue combination. I could see this jacquard fabric as drapes, a bedspread or women's clothes. I sewed it without washing it first and it barely wrinkles. The fabric has substance, softness and is not heavy. I think of it as a work of art.
This is such a lovely fabric! The fabric has a very soft hand, drapes well, and is very luxurious. The detail in the floral and fruit pattern is really amazing! I washed (hot) and dried on my regular perma-press cycle and it came out beautifully! Hardly any wrinkles. I had purchased 4 different colors of the Loire so I dried two completely, dried one minimally and then smoothed the damp fabric out on my bed to dry (my very favorite way to handle any linen), and dried one minimally and then finished with an iron set on the hottest temp. All came out really nice. My fav was the one spread on my bed (least amount of work but with a nice result) but the two that got dried all the way came out of the dryer with hardly a wrinkle...I didn't even bother to iron them. Even the selvages were smooth! The one that I did iron while damp was a joy to iron...so beautiful. And then you flip it over and the delight of this fabric begins all over again! One word of caution: if raveling fabric bothers you then you had better serge/zigzag the cut edges before wash/dry. When I took mine out of the dryer it was a tangled mess. That said, it really doesn't bother me and not that much thread came loose...less than 1/8 inch. You knocked this one out of the park, FS!
A Magnificent Subtlety of Rich Blue entwined amidst the Natural Linen in an unusually Beautiful, Upscale, Artisan Style, Floral. The Jacquard, Woven In, Design is Meticulous in Detail and worthy of framing, in its own right! It would be Simply Exquisite made into any Home Decor, a Simple Tunic Style Top (to showcase the Fabric's Beauty) and I think Scarves made of this would be a Show Stopper! Top off any outfit, for any occasion! Thank you FS.com once again for Exquisite Fabrics!!!
IL098 Loire Natural Riviera with Wild Rose napkins. Perfect for Easter! A couple yards may have been lost from the warehouse and ended up at my house as a table cloth. All kinds of sorcery.
