Linen Blend Fabric
Linen blend fabrics are a practical choice for creating everyday clothing, particularly during warmer Australian weather. Combining linen with other fibres can influence the fabric's feel, drape and overall finish, while retaining some of the natural texture that makes linen so popular.
At Wicked Fabrics, my Linen Blend collection includes woven fabrics suited to a variety of clothing and sewing projects. Depending on the blend and fabric weight, they're a great option for dresses, shirts, blouses, skirts, shorts, lightweight pants and relaxed everyday garments.
Choosing the right Linen Blend Fabric
Linen blends can vary depending on their fibre composition and construction, so it's worth checking a few details before choosing:
-
Fabric composition: Check the fibre blend, as different combinations can affect the feel, drape and care requirements.
-
Weight and drape: Lighter fabrics work well for shirts and flowing garments, while heavier options can provide more structure.
-
Natural texture: Linen blends often have a textured finish that adds character to finished garments.
-
Pattern suitability: Most linen blend woven fabrics have little to no stretch, so choose a pattern designed for woven fabrics.
