[@dianecrews6130]

For warm undertone people, the mustard, the camel and the olive are absolute must

[@Threadquarters]

Thanks for your input!

[@YvonneBerden]

Please please please mr Threadquarters show us the table soon!! Thanks ever so much 💐💐💐💐💐💐

[@Threadquarters]

Lol, I have shown him your message, he says he'll do it soon! Let's hold him accountable! 🤣

[@dynawmn]

I agree with you. Terra cotta with the green and mustard with the blue. The linens are lovely.

[@Threadquarters]

Thank you!

[@TamaryaS]

I just love your linens. They are definitely on my wishlist.

[@Threadquarters]

Glad you like them!

[@chrischristian08]

What a difficult decision to know what fabric to buy! Can’t imagine. They’re all so beautiful! I love linen of any colour or weight. Ps. Sea green and mustard! I have your hair. Except I’m probably 20 years older. Mine has gotten better with age so you have lots to look forward to! My grandmother was Scottish but I’m an Aussie! 🥰

[@Threadquarters]

Lol, it is SO difficult to pick colours (especially when its in colours that I don't gravitate towards because they don't suit me), but gosh, it's a fun dilemma to have 🤣 And yay about the hair - I'm loving my grey coming in. It's so liberating to just embrace it and not have to worry about dying it. ☺️

[@josiehenderson-dott286]

Love the caramel, natural and the Chambrays. The price range is fine I think. Thank you x

[@Threadquarters]

Thank you so much for your thoughts on the linens, really helpful! 😁

[@deanalovessewn6117]

Hi Suzie!! Linen colors are amazingly gorgeous.. Turquoise is amazingly stunning…. 💜💜💜🧵🧵🧵

[@Threadquarters]

Thanks Deana! Yes, it's the vibrancy of the turquoise just gorgeous?! 😍

[@maureencullen1008]

Your having great advice from your buyers and subscribers,use this as a great basis but then trust your instincts.You've built up a fab business with gorgeous fabrics ,if you feel these fabrics are too expensive then trust your feelings.Going by the replies your customers don't think they are but it's your business.I love your choices and your love for them shines through.The linens you've chosen are gorgeous,I love the colours and the texture look beautiful.

[@Threadquarters]

Thanks Maureen! Yes, lots of fantastic suggestions from my viewers, all really helpful. I yes, I LOVE this fabric so so much. It is a joy and a privilege to be able to share it with the world. ❤️

[@katherinerhodes4211]

For your dress go for the green! Any of the warm colours would be great, they are all to pretty.

[@Threadquarters]

Thank you!

[@susanstoror4894]

Hi Susie - I would love the caramel and mustard in lightweight. Also, the blue and white plaid handkerchief linen is divine, and the price is fine for me. Gorgeous.

[@Threadquarters]

Thank you so much for your feedback Susan, really helpful! 😁

[@livingmy2ndchance]

All of the linen is beautiful. Can certainly see why you are having a difficult time choosing colors. I had to go back and watch that part 3 times. Still having a hard time. But I think I would select the blue, yellow and the caramel. I think. Of course I may watch it again and change my mind. LOL!

[@Threadquarters]

LOL Stacy, it is SO hard! Especially when I'm picking colours that I personally won't pick (because they don't suit me...not because I don't like them). So great to get everyones feedback though, thank you!

[@foxeymoore]

Lovely linen,I love the clothes made by Wrap and by Poetry and enjoy receiving their catalogues full of garments in linen,the downside is the price.Take a look Susie,because their colour palette is superb. I would pay £20 for those lovely stripes and I can easily make a Kalle or a Melileu shirt out of just one metre. I like the bold colours but on the whole in linen I prefer to sew classic patterns in neutral colours.Wishing you every success in all you do.

[@Threadquarters]

Ooo I looked up those clothes shops and they are beautiful, thank you for the tip! Love getting sewing inspiration from rtw. Thank you for the feedback on the linens too, very helpful! 😁

[@Sewsew60]

Love the caramel and off brown great for my warm colouring lovely in light weight Love the light in thin navy and white, love the chambray. In my opinion worth the money! Only now realising you you sell fabrics!

[@Threadquarters]

Thanks so much for the feedback Maggie, really helpful. Yes, I've been selling for nearly a year now (although with a bit of a break at the start of the year because of Brexit...and still working my way around that at the moment!). I don't do too many vlogs about it because I don't want this to be a pushy sales channel!

[@bev2760]

Love the airforce blue, would be good in both weights.

[@Threadquarters]

Brilliant - thanks for the feedback Beverley! 😁

[@physioontheriver7325]

Wow. So hard to decide! I’ve already bought some of your lovely Irish linen but it’s really helpful to see what you are planning as it has given me some great ideas of what to sew with it! I have a warmer complexion and would be classed a warm Spring so I was interested in your warmer toned linens. I loved the mustard and the Airforce blue but also the turquoise, pale blue stripe and the blue chambray. Hope that helps! I shall take a look at that Merchant and Mills pattern as it sounds lovely but has not hit my radar.

[@Threadquarters]

Oh thank you so much for your input, it's so helpful! Hoping to get the mustard, airforce, turquoise and chambray in very soon!

[@catrionacurry8674]

lovely linen! I wouldlike the caramel and khaki in bottom weight and the turquoise for a top

[@Threadquarters]

Thank you so much for the feedback, so helpful! 😁

[@lizsheridan5357]

The airforce blue, Olive and natural all in heavier weight for trousers, all stunning though

[@Threadquarters]

Wonderful, thank you for the feedback Liz, so helpful 😁

[@MariSews]

I can’t wait to see the table vlog. I’m trying to figure out what I’m going to do in my space

[@Threadquarters]

I'll try and get my husband to film it this weekend.... 🤞🤣

[@tracyfrost]

I have four pairs of Emerson shorts, I want to make longer ones.

[@Threadquarters]

It's a great pattern isn't it!

[@user-ff2sj5zv8v]

Stunning I absolutely ADORE the white I bought last week it is GORGEOUS. I'm looking for blue toned reds and deep pinks - like you all the cool tones can't wear warmer shades at all. :D

[@Threadquarters]

So glad you love your white linen, it's a beautiful quality fabric isn't it? The supplier has a very vibrant red which I'll hopefully get in soon, and I've asked him about the lovely raspberry to see if I can get any more of it...waiting to hear back! 🤞

[@tracyfrost]

Andrea from beyond the pink door has the cuffing and she is in Ireland.

[@Threadquarters]

Yep, good suggestion. Lots of lovely suppliers have great cuffing options. 😁

[@lynneozzyblackbeard]

Oh my goodness, I didn't know I needed neon orange linen in my life, but I definitely do!! Also that chocolate brown on the right is chatting to me!! Lynne 😆😃

[@Threadquarters]

The neon orange is MEGA Lynne! It's really cool. Good call on the brown - I will definitely get that in stock sometime soon 👍

[@lynnew5619]

I love, love the caramel colour with the palest oat colour. Also the pale coffee-ish colour. All in the heavier weights. In fact all the brown colours as they are rare in the dress fabric world! The pale pink is gorgeous in the lighter 150 and the classic chambray blue. I saw Michael Portillo in a jacket made in that bright orange linen! Lol

[@Threadquarters]

LOL your comment about Michael Portillo's jacket made me laugh! And thank you so much for the feedback on the linen colours, really helpful 😁

[@Jayemceetee]

The turquoise is amazing. I want a dress so am thinking the 230?

[@Threadquarters]

Isn't it just the most gorgeous colour? Thanks for the feedback 😁

[@willemienkort7791]

On the screen (colours are always different) the green and the yellow look best together, and then the cobalt with the terra :). You will undoubtedly look wonderful in either/ any combination :)

[@Threadquarters]

Thank you so much for the feedback!

[@libbymcculla1619]

susie- these are all so lovely.I got the off white linen from you.it is beautiful-cant wait to get a blouse made with it, but I have signed up to your newsletter -will be watching for those lovely deadstocks .If I was to make a jacket would I need to use the heavier weight??

[@Threadquarters]

Oh I'm so glad you love your linen Libby! And yep, deadstock coming SOON! Yes, definitely go for the 230 if you want to make a jacket, it would be a lovely weight for that.

[@maureencullen1008]

Do you know that an adult Chinese site has added itself to your information.

[@Threadquarters]

Thanks Maureen. I had seen their comment and thought I had deleted it, but it seems not. Thanks for letting me know, and for reporting it. I've reported it as well. Horrible!!
