Designed for sewing projects that begin with fabric and take shape through your own ideas, this 100% linen fabric offers a straightforward foundation for handmade clothing and other DIY creations. With a fixed width of 160cm and a weight of approximately 240g per meter, it gives you clear dimensions to work with when planning your pattern and fabric requirements.
Made from 100% pure flax, the fabric is described as breathable and is intended for clothing-related projects. The source specifically lists applications including shirt dresses and handmade sewing, making it suitable for developing garments according to your preferred pattern and construction. Its woven construction provides a defined fabric base for cutting and sewing.
When planning a garment, start with the actual pattern rather than estimating fabric requirements from the garment type alone. For a shirt dress, lay out the front, back and sleeve pieces across the 160cm width before cutting to determine how much length is required. For other clothing projects, consider the dimensions of each pattern piece and allow additional fabric for seams, hems and any separate sections included in the design.
The fabric can also be incorporated into wider DIY craft projects where a piece of linen is needed for a handmade creation. If you are working on more than one project, plan the pattern pieces together before cutting so you can distribute the available fabric more carefully. When purchasing multiple pieces of the same fabric, the source states that multiple orders are sent as one continuous piece.
At approximately 240g per meter, the fabric weight is another useful specification to consider when selecting a pattern and planning the finished project. The fixed 160cm width should also be included in your cutting calculations, particularly when working with larger garment pieces.
Whether you are creating a shirt dress, developing another clothing pattern or working on a handmade sewing project, this 100% linen fabric provides a simple material base to cut, arrange and shape according to your own design.

Styling Notes
- For a shirt dress: Lay out the front, back and sleeve pieces across the 160 cm width before cutting to work out the required fabric length and make practical use of the available width.
- For a summer top: Start with a simple top pattern and check the placement of the main pieces within the 160 cm width before ordering the required length.
- For a larger garment: Check the complete pattern layout first, particularly where wider body or sleeve pieces are involved, then calculate the total length needed rather than estimating from the garment type alone.
- For multiple projects: Plan the pattern pieces for each project before cutting and calculate the combined fabric requirement. Multiple orders of the same fabric are stated to be supplied as one continuous piece.
- For leftover fabric: Keep usable offcuts for smaller sewing projects, fabric ties, patchwork or other compact details where shorter pieces can still be put to use.
