I just ordered 9 yards of linen/cotton blend for the Much Ado project (the color is *perfect!!*), and when I lifted it out of the package, this giant 8x10" swatch card fell out!  Swatches of 30 colors of their 5.3 oz linen! They're mostly pasted down, so you can't feel the hand/weight, but I've bought enough linen from them to not need that. It's just so fun to have all these colors right here in front of me for reals.  Their website actually displays almost perfectly on my monitor, but still. Who doesn't love a swatch card?  ;D

It's even 3-hole punched, so it's going into one of the Margo Anderson binders (probably Tudor).

Thought I'd add a pic:


(The picture is *mainly* of the fabric, not the swatch card, since it's for an "In My Mailbox" feature on my blog, but you get the idea.)
