A friend of mine is wondering in what time period, and for what purpose, one could use checked linen. I think the fabric she's looking at is a pretty fine check, a colored thread on a light or white background. I seem to recall checked fabric like this being used for work clothes, towels, aprons, etc. in the 18th century but beyond that I'm drawing a blank. Anyone have input? Thanks.
