A good fabric gives a sewing project its starting point, and this white 100% linen fabric offers a clean, versatile foundation for creating garments and handmade pieces. With a stone-washed finish and a 138cm fixed width, it has a defined character that works naturally across a variety of sewing ideas.
Made from 100% linen and woven at 245g/m, the fabric has a substantial specification suited to projects that call for a little more fabric presence. The plain white colour keeps the overall look simple and adaptable, allowing the pattern and construction of your finished piece to shape its character.
The fabric is intended for DIY craft materials and can be used for robes, dresses, trousers, shirts and coats. When planning a garment, begin with the complete pattern rather than estimating from the finished length alone. Lay out the front, back, sleeves and smaller pieces together where possible, taking the fixed 138cm width into account before deciding how much fabric to purchase.
One useful feature for sewing projects is the continuous length supplied when multiple pieces are purchased. One piece represents 50cm × 138cm, while two pieces are supplied as one continuous 100cm × 138cm length, three pieces as 150cm, and so on. This makes it easier to plan a longer cut for a garment or larger handmade project without working with separately cut half-metre sections.
For a dress or robe, map the bodice and larger skirt or body sections first, then fit the sleeves and smaller pattern pieces around them. For trousers, shirts or coats, check the width needed by each pattern piece before cutting. Keeping the offcuts in mind can also help you plan smaller matching projects rather than leaving useful fabric unused.
Whether you are developing a simple garment pattern or working on a more considered handmade project, this white stone-washed linen offers a straightforward canvas for sewing. Order the length that suits your pattern and receive it as one continuous piece for a more flexible cutting process.

Styling Notes
- For a linen dress: Start with the bodice and skirt pieces when planning the layout, then position the sleeves and smaller pieces around them within the 138cm width. The white linen gives a clean base for simple dress shapes where the cut and silhouette remain the focus.
- For a linen shirt: Lay the front and back pieces side by side first, then check where the sleeves and smaller sections can fit before cutting. This helps you work with the fixed width efficiently while keeping the pattern layout organised.
- For linen trousers: Check the width of the trouser-leg pieces against the 138cm fabric width before ordering. Plan both legs and the smaller waistband pieces together so you can calculate the continuous length needed for the complete project.
- For a robe or coat: Map the larger body panels first and use the remaining areas for sleeves and smaller pattern pieces. If you purchase multiple 50cm pieces, they are supplied as one continuous length, giving you a longer uninterrupted section to work with.
