Questions

Hi Reza,

You suggested the use of plain-woven linen for the course, and offered many reasons for doing so, but I was wondering whether the linen should be treated or softened in any way. You see, I have several meters of natural linen, which some would call rustic, but I also have some fabric made of a linen-cotton blend. The latter is softer, smoother and does not appear to wrinkle as easily. They are both of a similar weight, and with visible grain, but (as expected) drape differently.

I should also mention that whilst I do have wool canvas, it may not be heavy enough to support the fabric.

Could either of the linen options above, serve as body canvas instead? And can the other potentially serve as the main fabric of our jacket?

Kind regards,

Travis
