Linen Viscose Blend Fabric - Lily

Linen, softened. Lily is a linen and viscose blend that feels as lovely as it looks. It has a fresh white background with round blue berries scattered across it, a print that’s calming and playful at the same time.

The linen gives the fabric structure and breathability, and the viscose adds a silky drape and softness. The blend also helps reduce the creasing you’d get with pure linen. It’s easy to work with and comfortable to wear, with a stylish, relaxed look. At 140cm wide and 175gsm, there’s plenty of room to cut, and it has enough body for crisp shapes as well as flowing ones.

Sew flowing dresses, relaxed tops, wide-leg trousers, skirts and shirts, or use it for home décor such as cushions, blinds and table linens. It’s OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified, so you can sew with confidence.
