100% linen, 62" wide
This very sheer, airy linen with a drawn thread is identical to linen found in The Foundling Museum and an early 1780s book of goods from Manchester, England. Sheer check linen may be used for 18th century lady's neck and pocket handkerchiefs, fashionable aprons and early 19th century gowns and chemisettes. This could also be used for either an 18th or early 19th century child's gown. This fabric will make elegant window or bed curtains. Off white 60/2 linen thread will match this fabric when hand sewing or try very fine white silk thread.
When you click on the image for a larger view notice the penny under the check linen to show how sheer this is.
