This fabric remnant may have a small flaw such as a stain, tiny hole, or weaving irregularity. If the type of defect is known, it is stated in the product description. We offer a generous discounts because we do not photograph the defects or provide details about their size or placement – purchasing this remnant is therefore a bit of a “lucky dip.” You may receive a piece where the flaw is barely visible, or one where it is more noticeable. By purchasing, you acknowledge and accept this uncertainty.
Defective remnants cannot be returned or claimed due to the listed flaws.
This linen cotton fabric is a plain weave. It is very similar in appearance to pure linen and has nearly identical qualities. The fabric is a bit duller, with slight slubs, and is softer and lighter.
Our linen cotton blends are suitable for garments and home decor. Please double check the weight when ordering; we have light and heavy versions for everything from blouses to trousers, jackets, and curtains.
The fabric breathes and is pleasant to the touch. We recommend washing or steaming to shrink before use. To prevent fading, do not dry colored fabric in direct sunlight.
Wash dyed linen cotton blends at 40°C; whites and natural colors can be washed at 60°C. Iron on the cotton setting; may also be steamed. If machine drying, use a short, gentle cycle.
Generally, pre-shrinking is needed for linen, cotton, and rayon, but for finer fabrics (light rayon, Tencel and modal) proceed with care – don't use hot water or a hot iron, simply launder the fabric the way you will be laundering the completed garment.
The fabrics in our core inventory, seasonal collections and limited editions are from repeated production cycles that we have quality-tested – given proper care their colors should not bleed. Fabrics that are on offer while supplies last are one-off products that have not been individually tested. For flax and wool, we recommend a sample test.
Yes. Like other natural materials linen can fade in the sun. Avoid hanging dyed linen to dry in the sun and do not hang dyed linen garments in places at home where there is direct sunlight either. For curtains and drapes, take into account that the color will fade over time or back them with a blackout fabric.
Most of our fabrics are one-time offers that last until they are sold out. However, some more popular items are always restocked or can be ordered on request. As a rule, this applies to notions, where the selection is pretty consistent, but may also include some types of fabric. Look at the product's availability value – it shows whether the goods are available while supplies last, in the core inventory or in a seasonal collection.
The goods in the seasonal collection come directly from our verified manufacturers. We change up the colors on offer from season to season but fabric quality is always constant. For large (wholesale) orders, colors that have been sold out can be reordered individually.
The minimum fabric order is a length of 20 cm.
No. We only accept retail orders through the e-shop. This eliminates situations where someone else orders the last of an item while your order is still sitting in our inbox or lies jotted on a bit of paper by the phone. By purchasing online, you are putting an immediate hold on the product. Of course, you can always call or write to us if you need help making your selection.
Yes. We ship worldwide. The price of shipping is automatically calculated at checkout before payment after you select the country of delivery and the preferred carrier. If you do not find your country in the dropdown list, please contact us. You will find a rough overview of shipping costs in our shipping and payment terms.
The estimated delivery date with your selected carrier can be seen before payment is made at checkout. It is calculated as the time for processing and packing your order plus the time it takes the selected carrier to deliver to a specific destination – this can be from 2 days for delivery within the Czech Republic to a week for delivery outside the EU. Expect longer delivery times during big sales and holidays.
