IL019 EVERGREEN Softened - 100% Linen - Middle (5.3 oz/yd2)
Evergreen Linen’s deep, rustic green brought intensity and depth into William Holman Hunt’s mythological scenes, whether indoors or out, invoking in them the awe and wonder of the English landscape.
A leader in the Pre-Raphaelite school of painting, Hunt looked back to the innocence of medieval times, when art was more closely tied to the natural world; as a result, his colors and subjects seem to be pulled straight out of the ground. Greens from all shades of the spectrum filled his heady canvases, imbuing them with a rich, mysterious glow.
At a medium weight of 5.3 ounces, this 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).

Exquisite green
Matched very well to the colour on my computer and phone screens. A luscious green, perfectly named as Evergreen. Will be using this to make a dress for attending a summer wedding (and a matching tie for my husband).
I love this shade of green! Complements a multitude of other colors and the fabric is very versatile both for clothing and home decor. It's light enough for summer and when layered is warm enough for winter. It's soft and durable enough for work clothing and holds its shape after many washes without wearing out. Linen is also a dream to work with. It doesn't slide around whole your sewing on it.
Love this evergreen color. Haven't made anything in it yet but have made many things in this weight linen. Love how it wears and is so comfortable.
Amazing
I love your fabrics. I will begin to start making clothing with all the fabrics I've been collecting. I have set up a sewing room perfect for my adventures. Everyone should try your product. Do I need to pre wash before cutting out my clothing? Deborah Post billfpostaol.com
I made a tamarack jacket with this fabric. Love the fabric, love the color! Just beautiful! Very pleased!
Just the right green with a hint of blue that I was looking for. I love this linen. I will be using it to make a Medieval women's cotehardie.
the best blue toned green
this is MY go to green. I favor COOL, RICH, (jewel toned) fabrics, although i can wear a lot of neutrals and warm tones if they are SATURATED colors. this is a blue toned green (It IS green, not teal in the slightest!) and is my go to green color to blend with Eggplant, rich reds, rich browns, deep blues, etc. If you wear cool toned green this is your color.
cant wait to wash and prep. So soft and the color is so rich. Darker than the fern color.
I always wash linen 3 times on hot water before cutting, in order to allow for shrinkage. I did with this, and there appears to be less shrinkage! It is also obviously great quality. Thank you for your service!
This fabric is a beautiful green and ,as always, it's a lovely linen from fabrics- store. I have been buying fabric from here for quite a few years and have never been disappointed. Great Customer service and always fast and reliable shipping.
I don't know how they do it, but every piece of linen I have purchased from this company has been, not only elegant for sewing, but astonishing in its beauty. The colors, all of them, are amazing. I go, "Ahhhhh," every time I open a new package. Making a blouse now snd soon will make a Renaissance dress. Don't hesitate. You will love this fabric.
I used this for a medieval dress and honestly I was blown away by the depth of the color. I ended up using the remaining bits to make myself a double breasted waist coat that I also get copious complements on!
This is beautiful fabric! I don't know what I'm going to do with it yet, but I love the color, hand, and weight of this linen. I bought the soft gray at the same time and am making a guayabera (Mexican shirt) for my husband. It cuts and sews like magic, and received my embroidery and other embellishments like magic too. Very, very happy!
I love this color of green! It is so deep and really does resemble the evergreen trees around my home. The fabric is soft and works up so well for garb for medieval re-enacting. Thank you so much!
This will be one of the colors in a modern quilt for my daughters' best friends wedding next summer. The high quality of this linen will make a beautiful long lasting quilt.
This is going to be for an Elvish dress for NYCC. Always washes well and holds the color. Soft and comfortable. Can't wait to get this started now that pre-wash is completed
This fabric didn't seem like quite what I was looking for but when the fabric arrived it was EXACTLY the colour I wanted. As with all the other fabric I have bought from this site it was soft and luscious and...okay I just love the linen here. And great colour. :)
I used this fabric for a swordsman shirt in a Renaissance wedding for a friend a few years back. The color is beautiful and has a very subtle blue undertone. It has a sturdy feel and has survived weekend long festivals in Texas for several years now. Great product.
This color is luscious. The fabric is a good weight for table linens, and it washes beautifully. I am hoping that some pinks will be added to the fabric offerings as well as some very wide linen fabrics for bed linens. The fabric is so wonderful that I would enjoy making a duvet from it.
The Nico Dress pattern in this lovely green color! Love this!
Tote with natural inside & out, and trimmed with green linen.
Heraldic cotehardie for re-enactment made with IL019 Evergreen and Black. Applique is Optic White. I have been buying my linen for period garb from Fabrics Store for years and have never been dissapointed.

Evergreen rus pants and "the most comfortable pants I own," according to this client. I've used this linen so many times in so many projects and it always looks and feels great! Fair warning, you'll want to wash it once or twice to prevent color bleeding, but the color stays true after washing.
My viking kit using (IL019) 'evergreen' linen as the base tunic and 'potting soil' as the hangerock, was extremely comfortable to wear, such a nice weight!
Evergreen linen tunic with white linen for the trim. Extremely happy Norseman.
My favorite Evergreen linen skirt. I can't wait for the snow to blow away and spring to return so I can wear it!

Tunic made for a Larper in florida. Made of four and a half yards of Emerald green. It is very beloved by it's owner. =)
Larper's surcoat, made of Emerald green, and lined in buckthorn.
I *love* this linen! I paired this with IL019 Royal Purple (front chest piece), IL020 Bleached White (the white part of the back piece), and IL019 Royal Blue ("river" on the back piece). This is made in the style of a 15th Century caparison and it is SO perfect. I lined both the front & back pieces with 4C22 Royal Blue and the flow of it is just perfect. VERY Medieval. The color is vibrant and I couldn't ask for a better linen.
