A Minerva exclusive, this gorgeous design is printed onto a fabulous quality linen and cotton blend fabric. It has the unique textured weave of linen and the cotton content adds a beautiful softness, while still retaining its structure. And it gets even softer after the first wash!

This woven, none stretch fabric is naturally breathable and is very popular for summer projects but can be worn all year round. It is perfect for sewing tops, skirts, dresses, jackets, jumpsuits, trousers, shorts and more.

Linen fabrics do crease which is a characteristic of this beautiful fibre and should be embraced! The natural texture and slub in the weave will come through the print and is all a part of the charm of this beautiful fibre. It is a lovely fabric to sew and presses like a dream.

At 145 grams per square metre, this fabric is classed as a light to medium weight. The fabric in most colourways is opaque and should not require lining. On lighter coloured prints, depending on the style you sew and your personal preferences, you may wish to line this fabric or wear a slip underneath.

We recommend sewing this fabric with a new fine universal needle for best results.

This fabric is POD (printed on demand), so please allow extra time for delivery. Once you place an order for POD fabric, our team will carefully print your chosen design, on your chosen base cloth, to your chosen size, with care. We pride ourselves on quality of materials, quality of printing and fast turnaround.

Because your fabric is made to order specially for you, please allow approximately 2 weeks for despatch of your order that contain POD fabric, however our turnaround is often much quicker. Please note this is only an estimate and to allow extra time during peak times.

If you are ordering other items at the same time and need those urgently, please place a separate order and those can be despatched from the Minerva warehouse with our usual speedy turnaround.

Please note, with print on demand fabrics, each individual order is its very own print lot. Identical to the concept of dye lots, this means it is highly advisable to order enough digitally printed fabric to complete your project at one time, to ensure all your fabric arrives from the same print lot. If two or more separate orders are placed, the fabric may vary.

Why choose POD (print on demand) fabric?

Print on demand (POD) is a more sustainable and conscientious approach to fabric. Every fabric is printed to order, which means we can focus on creating less waste, saving energy, and following ethical production practices.

Digital printing technology minimizes chemical and dye use compared to traditional screen printing, contributing to cleaner production processes.

The scalability of POD allows for small scale, local production, which not only supports local economies but also reduces the need for long distance shipping and storage.

By supporting and investing in POD, we take a significant step towards a more responsible, environmentally conscious fabric industry that is equipped to meet the challenges of our era.
