FAQ
Is this fabric good for bag linings?
Yes. The 7oz Black cotton duck is an excellent bag lining and interior fabric. It’s soft enough to sew easily yet strong enough to add structure, and the dark color hides dirt or markings inside totes and backpacks.
Can this be used for curtains or drapery?
Definitely. The 7oz weight provides a nice, flowing drape ideal for light curtains, café panels, and layered drapery designs. The black shade also works beautifully as a light-blocking liner or backdrop for photography and staging.
Does this fabric work for painting or screen printing?
Yes. This Black cotton duck can be used for screen printing, mixed-media art, or display backdrops. Because it’s dyed black, artists typically print or paint using opaque inks or light paints for visibility.
Is the fabric opaque?
It offers moderate opacity—thicker than muslin but not fully blackout. Perfect for photo backdrops, table skirting, or soft staging cloths where a flexible black base is preferred.
Can it be flame-retardant treated?
It is not FR treated as sold but can be treated upon request depending on project size and application.
