35 ct to 40ct Linen
Can anyone recommend an online shop to purchase 35 ct, 36ct and 40 ct linen?The only ones I can find are so expensive and I don't have a huge budget as much as I would love to.It doesn't need to be branded linen like Zweigart etc, just in the counts that I usually use.
Many thanks for your help I can recommend lecomptoirdesfees. Just copy the name and do a search. Look under IBRODE, LINENS, and the name THIEFFRY. It is a french linen that is stiff and wonderful for handbags, pouches, ornaments, etc. It feels like Northerncross linen and is wonderful. It is 35 Euros a meter so is it is so much cheaper then Zweigart. You can also get this at Cathbroderie shop. oh thanks for the info! I wonder, can "normal" linen be used? like from the fabric store? Following this thread Thanks for the info!! I knew a lot of shops, but it's depending on where you live,
shipping/ delivering cost as well.
did you try Google search for this.
Last year I bought some linen from Pineberry Lane
and the cost for shipping was immense. static/image/common/user_online.gif Bleu static/image/common/clock.gif 2014-12-22 12:39 static/image/common/back.gif

Well that's exactly the problem.
Either the linen is a ridiculous price and/or the cost of shipping is eye watering.
I don't understand the shipping costs when I can send fabric from the UK to anywhere in the world for the cost of a large letter.
The UK isn't that great when it comes to supplies I have to say.

... but in Europe are many shops,
maybe you have enough time in the christmas holidays for searching.
Zweigart is near to me and sometimes I go there with a friend,
they have an outlet shop, where the fabric is a bit cheaper.
But my favorite is Filli Graziano - Siena from Italy
shop: Ricamiamo Insieme
Pronto ricamo Lino 15filli--180cm wide-28,00€/1 metre
isn't much expensive
I buy a lot from 1-2-3 Stitch in the USA.They will sell cut pieces from 9x13, 13x18, etc. or as much as one yard lengths.They have many choices in color, count, suppliers, and they ship very fast.If you live in the USA, they ship within 1-3 days of purchase and it is extremely well priced for shipping (and fabric).They will ship overseas but I don't know if the rates are perceived as good or not.They are very reliable and I have bought from the for several years. That is an excellent price Bleu. I don't think I can buy a metre for that here in NA.
You can try ends of cuts. I usually browse online the 15% off pieces at a local store and buy their remnants. Mind you I have enough now to last me forever, or until I use up what I have. I buy most of my linen from ebay in the usa.Some shops ship international if need be.Good luck, I love stitching on linen! I buy my linen to "Anita little stitches"
