~*~Hello and thank you for looking~*~

~*~This buy it now is for this amazingly beautiful hand woven Vintage European hemp linen roll measuring (6.89 yards) 20.6 feet by 21.65 inches (6.3 meters by 55cm)

Beautiful, thick triple striped roll~*~* LOVELY maroon toned stripe! ~*~ The maroon is a wonderful tone, just LOVELY LOVELY. The tone of the hemp on one side is slightly darker and warmer in tone, the front is lovely cream tone~ beautiful with the maroon stirpe! ~*~*  ~*~*~ I just LOVE knowing that my textiles are grown and produced without the use of pesticides and chemicals~ LOVELY organic fabric~*~* naturally wonderful~*~* ~*~* I have attached some photographs of my textiles being used near the end of the auction~ :) Furniture not included in this buy it now~  should you require matching plain yardage, please email me and I can find the yardage that you require~*~*

This roll is in wonderful, unused condition.  This roll has a very bold stripe so to be sure that the stripe doesn't bleed into the hemp slighly, please test before washing. It SHOULD be just fine, however to be sure perhaps if you feel you wish to wash, wash on cold and hang to dry~ do test a small amount as I am sure it will be fine, I just worry sometimes when the roll is SO lovely!!!*~~*~*~* ~*~* ~*~*  ! ~*~

~Please see my store page “ About Hand-woven, Homespun Yardage” for more information on these wonderful textiles ~

For large projects like the sofa, plain linen can be used on the sides and backs!! I can usually match most rolls~ please email should you wish to discuss~*~

 

I have already imported all of my textiles into the USA from Europe, so I have already paid all Customs and Duty charges for you! ~*~ so there are never any customs and duty charges on my parcels sent to the USA! ~*~ My shipping is fast, you can expect to recieve your parcel within 2-3 working days after payment to the USA ~*~*

 

 

~*~These textiles are, by nature, Eco-friendly! The average age of these textiles is 100 years and they were grown before the use of pesticides ~*~*   they were naturally home grown, home retted ( in local lakes and ponds) and woven by hand. These textiles are being re-cycled today and showing off  the extreme craftsmanship of past generations! Yet another feature that makes these textiles extremely eco-friendly is their durability. These textiles were designed to endure generations of constant use~ and will have an extremely long life. The timeless beauty of this linen and their  extraordinary quality make these textiles the perfect choice for any home~ and an environmentally friendly choice~*~

 

 ~*~This wonderful fabric has so many uses:~*~Upholstery, headboards,   bedding, cushions, curtains,clothing, Roman Blinds, bags, ~ so many wonderful sewing projects~*~ 

 

~*~The woman weavers of yesterday would spend their evenings weaving these amazing rolls of linen. It took the average woman 1 night to weave 60 centimeters ( 24 inches) of linen

 ~*~ These rolls are 100%  machine washable, on warm..if there is visible dirt, just add a bit of Oxywash! I like to add Snuggle or similar fabric softener to the final rinse, for added softness~although not necessary~   They are so easy to wash on normal wash cycle, simply spin dry then remove when wet. Roll the linen tightly and let sit overnight. In the morning unroll and allow to dry naturally~ this presses the linen and there is usually no need to iron ( unless you prefer it perfect). If the stripe is very bold, please test before washing to be sure that the stripe will not bleed. If at all in doubt, best to dry clean~*~  They can be either air dried or dried in the tumble dryer for a softer touch~ Pure linen or hemp rolls tend to have no shrinkage, the rolls with cotton tend to have some shrinkage. These rolls are tough and sturdy, built to last.....and last and last!! ~*~ Hemp is built to last for many many generations making it a lovely textile for creating family heirlooms~*~

 All of my linen rolls are produced using natural fibers. Natural fibers have the irregularities and subtleties that are inherent ...adding to their rustic charm~*~  

  These rolls are increasingly difficult to find as they have been used so extensively over the past 20 years. This is a wonderful opportunity to own your own piece of textile history~*~

  • ~*~Important information~*~ 100% Customer satisfaction is extremely important to me! If you are not satisfied with your purchase please contact me immediately~*~ I would always endeavor to solve any problems together with my customer. I am a very friendly ebayer and simply determined to bring beautiful textiles to the world! I strive for both a 100% positive rating and 5 STAR services ratings so please contact me immediately if you feel I did not meet your expectations in any way. I take a great deal of care and pride in describing each textile very accurately. I also use many photographs to show the textiles also as I feel it is very important to see the exact condition, colors, texture, size etc of each textile. If ever you feel that I have missed anything, please contact me immediately as it would have been an oversight, never an intentional omission!~*~ I always post quickly; every Monday, Wednesday and Friday and I always combine shipping charges to save my customers money on postage. You will always get the most economical postage rates from Loodylady~*~ this is important to me! If there is a discrepancy of more than $1.00 between what you paid and the actual postage charge, please email as it would have only been a mistake on my part and you will be refunded immediately. ~*~ All of my textiles are wrapped in acid free tissue and sent in water tight wrapping, at no extra charge to my customers. I sell many items therefore I must state that the buyer assumes all risk of lost post. To avoid possible disappointment, I strongly recommend insuring your parcel. I always retain proof of postage. In the unlikely event, 100% of recovered compensation goes to the buyer~*~ politely request that all items be paid for within 7 days. The individual condition will be described to the best of my ability however, often flaws are inherent in vintage and antique textiles. Please email me if condition is vital to your purchase and we can discuss condition in detail. When describing my textiles, I use my best judgment, knowledge and experience to estimate their age. I have had many years of research and hands on experience with these wonderful textiles. I describe items as Antique if I estimate the age to be 100 years of age or greater. EBay currently define an antique as dating to 1930 or earlier. I describe items as Vintage, as per the dictionary definition, if I feel the textile has age, or is outdated or old-fashioned, dating from the past. If I use both Antique/Vintage when describing a textile, it is because I feel the textile is most likely 100 years of age or greater, but may fall just short of that date. I often work in collaboration with other colleagues and textile specialists to ascertain the approximate age of my textiles, however ultimately any statement of age is a matter of best judgment only~*~I also use my best professional judgment to ascertain the fiber content of my textiles, using sight and feel and where possible historical information and context to help me to identify plants used in a particular era. However, because my textiles are old, any statement of fiber content is again always only my best professional assessment. ~*~ I feel privileged and honored to bring these textiles to you, I sincerely thank you for your interest ~*~
