Picadill White - 40-count Linen for Counted Work

$ 56.00

This is a new linen that came out of the reproduction of the Old White Linen I had been using.  The story - we sent instructions and a sample of the Old White Linen and Montrose Linen to an Italian company to try to reproduce.  While their first try at the Montrose was correct, they mistakenly thought we wanted a 40-count linen that was even weave and with holes you could see - not the 40-count embroidery linen we were asking them to make.  It arrived after the sample meter was woven and I had to reject it as a substitute for the Old White (the second try was the new Restoration Linen).  BUT....

This is an amazing linen for counted work - 40-count with holes you can see.  So we decided to order a batch to be made of it for counted samplers or those with whitework!  

I am selling it in fat half sizes - 36" x 35"
