10 oz. Canvas Duck Natural, Fabric by the Yard

I purchase several things on Amazon and was giving pretty in-depth reviews. From this point on, here's the new agenda…. if it works as advertised, is well made, meets or exceeds the description, is a value, and arrives in a fair amount of time, it will get a "star rating" equal to what my expectations were/are. If it doesn't meet these criteria, then I will most definitely and descriptively tell the short comings of the products and you as a consumer will not have to go through the trouble of buying the product without some background knowledge. If the sell pulls that item and relists under another description, I will put the exact same review on the seller's feedback page. Sellers have done this a couple of times in the past, and I was true to my word then as well as now. DR

I ordered this canvass to repair an antique Palestinian dress, which is of indigo dyed canvass. I opted to buy black canvass as the blue of the dress is almost black. The canvass I received is the perfect weight for the dress.However, much to my surprise, the canvass was NATURAL COLOR, not BLACK. OOPS1 Not to worry. Had I known that you stocked canvass in natural color, I would have ordered it. I will now dye it the required shade of blue/black. You need to pay better attention to orders you receive.Note to amazon, How can I rate durability of fabric which has not been used yet???

A previous buyer mentioned that this canvas was purchased to make an ironing board cover. That is exactly why I bought it and it works perfectly for an ironing board cover.Nice tight weave and love the weight of the fabric. Will hold up to many passes of the iron.Someone also said that it frays and yes, it does fray. Solved this problem by drawing an outline along the cutting line and then sewing along this outline before cutting the canvas. Still a little fraying but not nearly as much as it would have been if it had not been sewn. Assume this problem could also be solved by running a thin line of fabric glue along the cutting line before cutting the canvas if one is not going to be sewing the fabric.Turned the cut line / hem line under twice forming a narrow hem before folding a third time and sewing the casing for the drawstring so that there would be no fraying inside the casing as the drawstring it pulled tight.Feel I will get many years of use from this canvas. Also washes well. Did not notice any shrinkage after washing in cold water and drying on medium heat.

Generous cut perfect weight/texture fabric for my project

Not the best value, but the product is solid and the black is very black, not an off black like many others. Shipping is way too slow however.

Great quality fabric for lining my handmade bags

Good quality and sturdy canvas for making musette. Will buy more in the future.

This is a very tough and thick canvas which I used to sew a tool pouch out of. Regular sewing machine goes through it fine though it will need a bit of help if going through more than 5 layers even with a sharp needle.
