From Nikolai Karpushin
Dear Friend,
Are you sewing for yourself, your family or a school project?
Are you a talented embroiderer, a crafty hobbyist, or the 'Mom Most Likely"
to volunteer to sew the props for this year's Freshman Follies?
Are you longing to create fabulous costumes, custom slipcovers, or a
one-of-a-kind artistic masterpiece?
Think linen!
Linens more than 3,500 years old have been recovered from Egyptian
tombs. Phoenician traders marketed linen in Mediterranean ports. Worn by
Egyptian, Greek, and Jewish priests as a symbol of purity, today linen
takes many forms from heavy canvas to the sheerest bed sheets. For
clothing, upholstery or any of a hundred uses, linen is crisp, clean and
comfortable. Soft, yet strong and very durable....
-
Unlike other fabrics, linen benefits from
being used, becoming softer and more comfortable with every washing...
-
Ideal for summer, it can absorb up to 20%
of its weight in moisture before it feels damp, and easily releases
moisture
back into the air to remain cool and dry to the touch...
-
It has the additional advantage to be
non-allergenic...
-
And when it comes to easy care, linen is
colorfast and launders beautifully...
-
People have been using linen for thousands
of years in countries all over the world, and for a wide variety of
uses. So it's no surprise that linen should still be regarded today as
one of the most luxurious and stylish of fabrics....
-
During the Middle Ages linen remained a
clothing staple. Linen was often used for underclothes because it was
light, cool, comfortable, and easier to wash than wool. Both men's and
women's coats and cloaks were often woven of linen, and many women's
dresses were made of linen woven at home on a loom. Bedding and table
linens, as they came into fashion over time, were also frequently made
of linen...
-
In time, different weights and types of
linen fabrics were developed for different uses. Butchers' linen, for
instance, was a sturdy, heavyweight linen fabric first used for French
butchers' aprons. Heavy bleached linen was often used as the backing for
embroidery or to offset delicate lacework. Damask, a reversible,
patterned linen weave, was used for tablecloths and napkins...
-
Today, linen remains a key natural fiber,
still prized for its smooth, cool texture, its strength, and its crisp
good looks. Linen is the top choice for fine table furnishings,
handkerchiefs, and embroidered finery. It is also featured each year on
the fashion catwalks for every spring and summer clothing collection,
creating crisp, cool looks that are always in style...
And so much more!

"I would like to take a moment to thank you. Your site came highly recommended from several seamstresses. They were absolutly correct.
The linen I received is beautiful. I am always leary of ordering fabric on-line as I like to feel and look before I buy (just a quirk with me, I guess).
It was shipped unbelievably fast and arrived on the estimated date indicated by the shipper. Again, thank you very much and I will making more purchaces
from you in future and will tell my friends about the excellent quality of your products."

"You guys rock! I ordered a 10 yard length of linen in January and it arrived quickly, just in time to fulfill some orders. I was pleased
with the way it washed up and worked up - very nice. On Tuesday of this week, I unexpectedly ran out of that linen and went to your website to purchase more.
It has just arrived - again, just in time to fulfill orders. Thanks for the great product and the fast shipping!"
