Upholstery

Home Decor

This fabric is wonderful for a variety of home decor applications.  Add a soft backing and binding to create a warm throw blanket to spruce up your sofa.  Add matching pillows that you can change with the seasons. In a bedroom, create a pretty duvet and pillow shams. 

Other Applications

While traditionally used for decorative purposes, heavier fabrics are a wonderful choice for creating period costumes for faires or conventions.  Use to create beautiful tote bags and reusable grocery bags.  It is also a great choice for table settings such as placemats and table runners.  

THREAD FAQ:

What size is sewing machine thread?

The three most common sizes of thread in the U.S. are 30, 40, and 50 wt. (For comparison, all-purpose thread is usually 40 wt.)

Which thread is thicker, 30 or 40?

Weight refers to a thread's thickness. In the world of embroidery and cotton thread, a lower thread weight number is thicker than a higher thread weight. This means that a 40 Weight thread is thinner than a 30 Weight thread.

Which is thicker, Tex 45 or Tex 70?

Tex is an accurate measurement and is considered a direct numbering system, meaning the higher the Tex number, the heavier the thread.
