8 Clothing Patterns to Sew From Linen

by

I do love linen for spring and summer!  The lightweight natural fabric has a lovely texture and is highly breathable, which is important when the days turn warm.  It’s a wonderful fabric to sew with – it’s stable and holds a crease easily.  Even better, clothes made from linen tend to have simple lines which show off the color and texture of the fabric.  We’ve rounded up some beautiful sewing patterns made to be sewn from linen, sure to get you inspired for some spring and summer sewing!
