Soft, delicate pinks like BLUSH linen are a recurring feature in Cecily Browns rich, expressionistic paintings, conveying nude flesh, spring blossoms in the sunlight, or freshly fallen snow, painted with the fluttering decadence of the Baroque era once led by Jean-Honore Fragonard.
A leading New York artist since the early aughts, Brown has been painting near-abstract canvases for several decades, exploring how viscous, wet brush marks can convey the flurried movements of bodies and nature, as if caught in a state of constant flux. She says, "[I]t's about looking and what you get from allowing the imagery to shift. and change. There isn't a final destination."

At a medium weight of 5.3 ounces this 59 inch wide 100% linen is versatile enough to be referred to as an All Purpose or Do it All linen. With its smooth look and tighter weave, this linen is neither sheer or heavy, but just the right in-between weight you will need for a variety of projects.

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).

Definitely order a sample first

I really wish I had ordered a fabric sample before placing an order for this one. I was imagining it to lean more towards a soft ballet pink, but this blush is much more beige than pink. It doesn't compliment my skin tone at all, which is really unusual in this color family.

Blush Perfection

This light weight linen fabric is beautiful. It's a soft, pale pink color - truly blush. It washed beautifully and is very soft. I'm going to make pillow covers for my son and daughter-in-law's bed to go with their white linen duvet.

IL019 Blush

IL019 is my favorite in your line-up. It truly is "all-purpose." For this lovely blush, I'm planning to make a sleeveless shirtdress. Perfect for a summery, cool outfit.
