For all of you sewing / crafting / garbing type folks, there is an online linen sale going on at Fabrics Store:

Article: IL019
Weight: 5.3oz/yard
Width: 59 inches
Length: 20 yards
Content: 100% Linen
Thread size warp: 17.9
Thread size weft: 17.9
Thread count warp: 46
Thread count weft: 37
20 yard bolts in 28 different colors (one color per bolt, of course) of medium weight linen. I've bought linen from these folks before, and have always been very happy with the quality.
Price is $119.75 per bolt, which comes to about $5.99 per yard.
Just FYI!
This is their normal 'sale' and 5.3 ounce while good for outwear would not be the best choice for Smocks and Shirts and aprons or coifs for that matter. You could use it for lining bodices and the like. If you want lighter fabric try their 3.5 handkerchief, IMHO it is very hard, even washed it does not become as soft as my Irish Linen from the old Denver Fabrics. Sigh I miss them so much.
