Crafters' Connetction---Tips and Techniques

Fabric Selection- Linen

Linen Some linens are washable, while others are dry clean only. Washable household linen, handkerchiefs, and linen apparel can be washed easily and become softer with use. White linens should be dried in the sun, if to help them to keep their whiteness. Generally speaking, dry cleaning is recommended for drapery linens, upholstery linens and decorative linens. Linen fabrics may need frequent pressing, unless treated for crease resistance.
