Light, airy, and semi-sheer, this NYC Designer Linen is a go-to for warm-weather sewing. Its delicate weave provides a perfect foundation for floaty blouses, gathered dresses, or layering pieces. At 120 GSM, this fabric has a soft, breathable hand with a slight crispness that softens beautifully with washing. Due to its semi-sheer nature, it's best suited for tops, breezy dresses, and layering rather than structured bottoms. Try it for an Archer Button-Up (Grainline Studio), Wiksten Shift Dress, or a billowy tunic.

Great Lightweight Fabric
Posted by Kate on 18th May 2025
This was a fantastic choice for a lightweight pant for summer. For those of you with cats/dogs, this did not attract a significant amount of (white) cat fur--enough that I could brush away the significant portion of cat fur within 30 seconds using hand only (I have one shorthair cat in the house, and this is after the cat sitting on my lap for 30 minutes). This fabric was a little bit too see-through for 1-layered pants with black undies underneath (using Simplicity 8299 pattern), but with 2 layers at the shorts level was very acceptable (per fiance). Creasing after 12-hour wear is reasonable--nothing compared to 100% linen, would be easy to remove with <5 minutes of ironing. Importantly, I did not pre-wash this fabric, so will let you know if my opinion changes!
