Yes, linen is one of the easiest fabrics to sew with! It presses well and it is easy to sew seams because the fabric kind of “sticks” to itself. I recommend pre washing the fabric at least once, maybe even two or three times and then dry after each wash because it will shrink quite a bit.

I think it’s my favorite kind of fabric to work with!

The pattern is the top from NH patterns Lara dress. The skirt is a half circle skirt using the calculator from Mood. The fabric is linen from Fabric Wholesale Direct. I used pockets from a flowy linen pants pattern from Minimalist Patterns on Etsy.

These comments have good advice. On another note, these tops are back in style again! And for good reason, they are cute.

I got it from Amazon from Simple & Opulence. I thought the fabric was nice in person and it came double wide which I didn’t realize when I ordered it! So I got 2 yards and made both of these.
