Woven Check Linen Cotton - Chestnut

This Woven Grid Check is a fabric we are especially excited about with its classic 1-inch grid check woven throughout. It has the most wonderful balance of softness and substance, with a slightly weightier feel than your typical lightweight woven. The combination of cotton and linen gives it a beautiful natural hand that's soft and comfortable, with just enough body to hold its shape without feeling stiff. It's the kind of fabric that feels dependable and versatile, perfect for all sorts of everyday sewing projects.

Choose this fabric when you want something soft and easygoing with a little natural structure. It's a wonderful option for transitional-weather sewing, offering enough substance for comfortable everyday layers without feeling heavy. The textured weave gives it a relaxed appearance that works beautifully for garments meant to be worn and enjoyed often.

This is such a lovely fabric to work with, especially for beginners! The stable woven construction makes it easy to cut, pin, and guide through your sewing machine without slipping or shifting. It has enough body to handle comfortably, while the soft finish makes it easy to maneuver and press. It's a great choice for practicing everyday garment construction, from simple seams and hems to button plackets and pockets.

Choose this fabric when you want a soft, relaxed drape with enough body to give your garments a little shape. It's especially nice for loose-fitting silhouettes that need comfortable movement without feeling too thin or overly fluid. The light-to-midweight construction makes it a versatile choice for layering pieces and easy everyday clothing.

Great for:

• Relaxed button-up shirts and overshirts
• Easy pull-on pants and loose trousers
• Casual dresses and tunics
• Gathered skirts and relaxed tops
• Lightweight matching sets
• Comfortable lounge pants and shorts

Machine wash cold with like colors and tumble dry low or hang to dry. We recommend prewashing before cutting, as natural cotton and linen fibers may shrink. One of our favorite things about this fabric is how beautifully it washes, becoming even softer and more relaxed while maintaining its lovely woven character. Press with a warm iron and steam for a smoother, crisper finish.

We do our best to photograph our fabrics as accurately as possible, but colors may vary slightly depending on your screen settings. We always recommend ordering a swatch if you're unsure about a color.
