Linen vs. Cotton Linen

Linen blends combine the natural texture of linen with the softness of cotton or the drape of rayon, making them easier to sew and care for than pure linen. For more linen-cotton blends, including Shizen cotton linen solids, browse our cotton linen fabric collection.

Easy Linen Projects

Linen is perfect for summer tops, dresses, wide-leg pants, aprons, napkins, table runners, pillow covers and tote bags. Essex and Mochi Linen also add beautiful texture to modern quilts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does linen fabric shrink?
Yes, linen and linen blends can shrink. Prewash in cool water and tumble dry on low or line dry before cutting.

Does linen wrinkle?
Linen blends wrinkle less than pure linen but still have a relaxed, natural look. Iron while slightly damp for a crisp finish, or embrace the texture.

Can I quilt with linen?
Yes. Linen-cotton blends like Essex and Mochi Linen quilt beautifully and add soft texture. Linen frays more than quilting cotton, so use a slightly larger seam allowance or finish raw edges.

Which linen is best for garments?
Choose Brussels Washer linen-rayon for drapey tops and dresses, and Essex linen-cotton for structured pieces like shirts, skirts and aprons.
