Premium Kaufman Brussels Washer Linen Blend Navy Fabric by the Yard - Soft Textured Upholstery & Drapery Material for Home Decor, DIY Sewing Projects, and Luxury Bedding

good, soft.I made a maxi-length summer dress and it was easy to work with although somewhat slippery under the sewing machine pressure foot. It presses up nicely and can tolerate the linen setting on your iron. I bought this fabric based on the linen content, the affordable price and a review that stated it's soft. It's not soft. In fact, it's rather scratchy. It's also not light but rather medium in weight. It does have a good drape and quite flowy for a medium-weight fabric, but I would not choose this as a summer fabric. My dress turned out great but again, it's scratchy so I will likely not wear it.The poppy color is absolutely gorgeous!!! The fabric has a lovely drape and softness to it though it still has a crispness to it from the linen. I ordered 4 yards and it was cut as one long piece which washed and dried beautifully (serged the raw ends first). I'm soooo excited to use this in a spring coat dress project.After washing, this linen rayon blend came out soft, drapey, easy to sew, less wrinkly than regular linen. In fact, I prefer it over 100% linen, especially since it’s at least three to four dollars cheaper per yard.So soft and smooth and washed great. I overlocked the raw edges before washing because linen is prone to fraying and helped it through the pre washing process. I think this has some rayon content which adds to the softness. It also doesn’t seem to wrinkle as bad as 100% linen. I like it so much that I ordered more in other colors.This fabric is lovely. It has a nice drape to it.It’s soft unlike other linen. Came in earlier than expected as well. So, will definitely going to buy again.I purchased this to make a Metaphoric Dress, which is a reversible dress pattern put out by Sew Liberated. The under layer of this dress needs to be a reversible fabric and this Kaufman woven fabric works perfectly for that.It washes up nicely, however, as expected with a cotton/linen blend, you do need to press it. It does not wrinkle up like a linen though, so that is nice. Due to the cotton it is also a softer material. The particular color I ordered, called Ocean, is really a lovely, deep, rich teal blue colorway.
