Quietly rustic, beautifully understated, and full of vintage countryside charm.
This lovely cotton-linen fabric features tiny, scattered floral motifs in soft cream against a muted earthy brown background.
The delicate flowers have a slightly faded, hand-printed appearance, giving the design a wonderfully nostalgic character.
What makes this fabric particularly interesting is its natural slub texture. The subtle variations in the yarn create a beautifully organic surface, adding depth and character to the otherwise simple floral print.
The combination of earthy colors, delicate flowers, and rustic texture feels effortlessly timeless.
A beautiful choice for vintage-inspired garments, Japanese-style everyday clothing, and relaxed countryside silhouettes.
Hand & Drape
This cotton-linen blend has a distinctly structured hand, with a firm, crisp feel and a naturally textured surface.
At approximately 150 gsm, it is relatively lightweight in terms of weight, but its firm construction gives it noticeably more body than a typical soft cotton-linen fabric.
The slub yarns create subtle irregularities throughout the weave, adding a lovely rustic, linen-like character.
Rather than falling into soft, fluid folds, this fabric holds its shape beautifully, making it especially suitable for garments that benefit from structure and volume.
Please note: This is a firm, crisp fabric rather than a soft or drapey one. It is best suited to projects where a structured silhouette is desired.
