These linens are beautiful. Simply. Beautiful. Hand-dyed in Hungary, they are perfect for samplers and prim stitching. It's a nice Zweigart-based linen, and there are subtle variations in color that make it look...well, old-ish. The edges are even serged (on the full yard -- if you buy less than a yard, some edges will not be serged). This fabric is available in fat halves or whole yards -- buy TWO to get a fat half (27 by 36, approximately), or FOUR to get a full yard (55 by 36, approximately).
