Extra width makes room for a carefully planned altar cloth.
Porcelain brings the texture of a linen blend to larger altar and table projects. Its approximately 90-inch width gives you more room to plan the finished cloth, while the firm finish is something to feel and compare in a swatch.
Projects and possibilities
The wide width accommodates altar cloths, fair linens, and communion-table coverings with fewer seams. It also works well for tablecloths and event linens, and for home or hospitality sewing where a sturdy white cloth is wanted.

Planning your project

Ordering fabric and swatches
Select By the Yard for fabric yardage or Swatch for a sample, then choose your color where offered. Swatches are approximately 4 × 6 inches and are intended for checking color, texture and feel; they may not show a full pattern repeat.
Ordering multiple swatches: If you order two or more swatches, we will fulfill your order as swatches in the colors and quantities selected. Ordering several swatches does not order fabric yardage. Please order yardage separately using the By the Yard option.
Please review your selected option and quantity before checkout. Swatch orders are final sale once processed.
For our complete terms, see our return and refund policy.
Fulfillment time: Swatches are usually in stock and are generally fulfilled within 1–5 business days. If fabric stock needs to be ordered, please allow 7–14 business days for fulfillment.
Shipping transit time: Carrier transit begins after your package ships and is additional to fulfillment time. Transit time varies with the shipping service selected at checkout.
Before you cut and sew
A linen/polyester blend can still shrink and wrinkle. Test your chosen washing and pressing method on a swatch before treating the full fabric, then measure before cutting. Allow for shrinkage and consider any embroidery or trims when planning the care of the finished cloth.
Questions about this fabric
Is Porcelain pure linen?
No. It is a linen/polyester blend. If your project calls specifically for 100% linen, compare it with Renaissance or another pure linen before choosing.
Does a 90-inch fabric make a 90-inch finished cloth?
The listed width is before preparation and finishing. Shrinkage and hems affect the finished size, so test, prepare and measure before finalizing the layout.
