General Store Fabric Collection - Brown Linework

Warm, earthy shades lend this print the look of aged signage, kraft paper, and well-loved country store packaging. Brown Linework combines nostalgic shop lettering with familiar references to groceries, coffee, candy, ice cream, soda, homemade pies, and general store goods in a relaxed allover arrangement. Its subdued palette works beautifully as a grounding neutral for quilts, rustic home décor, patchwork projects, and vintage-inspired accessories. The subtle contrast between the background and linework adds depth while keeping the overall effect soft, classic, and easy to coordinate.

For best results, machine wash cold on a delicate cycle with mild detergent, tumble dry low and remove promptly; do not bleach. Pre-washing is recommended. *Fabrics are not recommended for children's sleepwear.

*Although we do our best to ensure color accuracy in our fabric images, please note that your screen may produce small variances in color, shade, or hue.

Please Note: Fabric is priced by the yard and sold in ¼ yard increments.
