I have done some linen leaving and would love to switch to weaving Linen... but stocking the materials is not as easy or affordable as I'd like. But if someone supplies the linen I am happy to weave it...

Cool. I'm by no means a market researcher, but I'm guessing that most of us that appreciate the awesomeness of hand woven trim are also really into wool and linen. How much of a price differential is it, because I am interested in getting some in linen for real.
I'm going to ask those that read this to reach out as well... I'm going to go post to the lists I'm on looking for a linen supplier for tablet weaving... Wool I still need to try... but can get that quite locally...
Silk I have priced and is quite out of most peoples price range... but if someone wants silk and is willing to pay the price difference I am working to work something out with them on a case by case basis...
Linen options have been found.... but the places with good colour selection are very expensive, and the more affordable ones only have a very few colours....
At this point I am willing to bring in Linen for Custom pieces, starting more in the new year as I am about to start my very busy season...
