I guess I will have to settle on the Linen/cotton blends and silk tends to
insulate and the camicias are for summer.

Hi De,
This thin linnen is not available today. I can tell that for sure.

How about using a thin silk in stead?

Thanks for the site, Saragrace.  Have you ordered from them and what do you
think of their linen?  I am always looking for good sources.  Also, what
sample cards did you order to get a range of what they offer?  Do you mean
all of the Home Collection, New Card and Artist Canvas collections?

I'm easily confused!

(Have a grand time in Belgium! - we were there and in the Netherlands last
fall and the art museums are fabulous.)

You may be thinking of The Linen House.
http://thelinenhouse.com/<http://thelinenhouse.com/>  I have their complete
sample collection.
Their Napoli, Voile De Lin, Lille, Roma & Veneszia would all work for under
clothing.

I'd say the Napoli is the softest and finest, but I bet if you wrote and

I'll be there in September!  W! I wonder if they'd mind if I wrapped
myself up in a few yards just to get a rush!

I know that one can get silk that sheer and I know there is cotton that

Hi De,

That *might* be the cambric I found. It's at least as light as batiste, if 
not moreso. I can only get it wholesale and have to buy in bulk. In North 
America, I  get it from Ulster Linen. I believe they also have a parent 
company somewhere in the UK.

Ermine, a lion rampant tail nowed gules charged on the shoulder with a rose 
Or barbed, seeded, slipped and leaved vert

(Fieldless) On a rose Or barbed vert a lions head erased gules.

Once upon a time there was a discussion on batiste weight linen and a source
was posted. I thought I saved the URL but I can't find it in my link files.
Could someone with the link please post it and post (if you remember) the
name of that type of linen as I know it isn't batiste.

The discussion I remember began when Julian Wilson (Hi, Julian!) mentioned that 
he had bought some batiste to make banners with from a local supplier on (Old) 
Jersey. Lots of us got very excited. Upon investigation, however, it turned out 
to be cotton rather than linen, IIRC.
