    Does anyone know where I can purchase good quality linen material?

    I bought mine in the vendor hall at an ETA conference last year. It's imported from overseas and drop dead gorgeous. It also had a drop dead price. I haven't seen anything comparable since. Maybe search online?

    Have you tried the big box chain fabric stores? I bought some nice linen for a wedding suit a couple of years ago at Hancocks. I would have loved the linen at a specialty shop but it was way out of my price range. Good luck.

    I usually get emails from fabrics-store.com. I've never ordered from them, but they do ship internationally.

    I've even found it in the $1 a yard stuff at Walmart (probably would be $2 a yd now). Our Walmart seems to get really nice stuff about every third or fourth shipment.
