Description

Decor Velvet Bonded is 345 GSM, 100% polyester and 135cm wide, a velvet with a bonded backing for upholstery and home decor. The backing keeps the pile stable under weight, and polyester pile springs back after it is pressed flat. It resists fading and staining better than cotton velvet. Buy it plain by the metre in white, or printed to order as the base for any PrintLab design.

What to sew with upholstery velvet

  • Cushion covers
  • Headboards and upholstered panels
  • Ottomans and footstools
  • Chair seats
  • Curtains and pelmets

Velvet or Decor Canvas

Choose Decor Canvas (365 GSM) for a flat, hard wearing surface. Choose velvet for a soft pile with depth of colour. Both are made for home decor rather than garments.

Printed velvet

Colour looks deep and rich on velvet pile. Florals, damasks and bold botanicals suit it well. Pick any design from the PrintLab catalogue, or upload your own artwork.

Velvet questions

Is it good for upholstery? Yes. The bonded backing gives it stability for seats, headboards and ottomans.

Can I iron velvet? Keep the pile lifted: steam from the back, or press face down on a towel at low heat.

Which way does the pile run? Cut every piece with the pile running the same way, or the colour will look different from panel to panel.

Is it for clothing? It is made for home decor. For garments, choose a lighter base.

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.
