Merchant and Mills - 185 LINEN BOWLING GREEN

Price per half metre

European laundered linen, tumbled at the mill for softness. Grass green.

The 185 dress weight linen is the go to linen for all dress making and is what Merchant and Mills use for many of their samples. It is a great match for all of Merchant and Mills patterns, dresses, tops and loose fitting trousers. 

This linen also works well for lighter curtains for a casual less refined look.

It is produced in small batches in Eastern Europe where there is a strong heritage of spinning and weaving linen fabric. Our 185 linen collection is woven in a mill run on green energy and is Oeko-Tex certified.

This 185 collection is a stock range so we should always have plenty in stock.
