No I'm not sure if it's linen it just looks like it. Guess I can just wash some and see what happens. Since it was given to me I'm not afraid of ruining some pieces to see how this stuff behaves. Almost every piece is yards not just scraps so I have plenty to "play" with. I have 13 boxes stuffed full of fabric, not small boxes either.
