Description

Decor Canvas is 365 GSM, 100% polyester and 147cm wide, a tightly woven canvas and the heaviest fabric in our range. Polyester does not shrink the way cotton does and handles damp better, and it holds its colour and shape through washing and daily use. It is the base for cushions, seat pads and upholstery that get used every day. Buy it plain by the metre in white, or printed to order as the base for any PrintLab design.

What to sew with Decor Canvas

  • Cushion covers and floor cushions
  • Seat pads and bench cushions
  • Light upholstery and ottomans
  • Roman blinds
  • Heavy tote bags and storage baskets

Decor Canvas or cotton canvas

Choose Cotton Canvas (330 GSM) when you want a natural fibre that softens with use, for bags and aprons. Choose Decor Canvas for cushions and seats that have to keep their shape and colour. For a soft pile finish, see Decor Velvet Bonded (345 GSM).

Printed Decor Canvas

Large scale designs suit cushions and upholstery best, because the whole motif shows on a cushion front or seat. Colour stays bright on polyester. Pick any design from the PrintLab catalogue, or upload your own artwork.

Decor Canvas questions

Is it good for upholstery? Yes, for light upholstery: dining chair seats, ottomans, headboards and cushions.

Does it shrink? Polyester shrinks far less than cotton. Follow the care label and wash cool.

What needle should I use? A heavy or denim needle, size 90 to 100, with a longer stitch length.

Can I use it outdoors? It handles damp better than cotton, but it has no outdoor coating. Bring cushions in when they are not in use.

Can I feel it first? Yes. Order a 25 x 25cm swatch from this page, or the Base Fabrics Pack to compare every print base.

How Decor Canvas is printed

Polyester bases are printed by sublimation, the method made for polyester. Heat takes the dye into the fibre for bright, lasting colour. How we print each base.
