7oz Cotton Canvas Fabric / Duck Cloth – Natural (58" Width)
Our 7oz cotton canvas fabric (single-fill duck cloth) in Natural is our lightest weight cotton duck—soft, drapable, and easy to sew. This versatile fabric is ideal for draperies, tablecloths, bag liners, pillow covers, aprons, banners, and lightweight tote bags. Makers also love it as a student-grade artist canvas or for use in product packaging and craft projects. Because this 7oz duck is slightly sheer, darker materials may show through when layered beneath it.
The Natural cotton duck has a clean, unbleached appearance and is perfect for both wholesale and DIY applications. It’s lightweight yet strong, offering smooth performance for home décor, art, or sewing projects where a soft hand and easy drape are preferred.

FAQ
Is 7oz cotton duck durable?
Yes, it’s a lightweight but strong weave suitable for many decorative and light-duty sewing applications. For heavier-duty projects, explore our 10oz or 12oz cotton duck fabrics.
Is this fabric suitable for painting?
Absolutely. Our 7oz Natural cotton duck is often used as a student-grade artist canvas—easy to stretch, prime, and paint on with acrylics or oils. Because it’s a lighter weight canvas, it does not provide the ultra-smooth texture of heavier artist ducks, so it’s best suited for smaller art pieces, studies, or craft-grade canvases rather than large-scale stretches. Many artists appreciate its natural tooth and light texture for practicing brushwork or mixed media applications.
Can this be used for bag linings or curtains?
Yes. The lightweight drape of our 7oz duck makes it ideal for bag linings, tote interiors, sheer draperies, and café panels. It provides structure without stiffness and adds a clean, natural finish to sewn projects.
Does Natural cotton duck have a finished coating?
No, this fabric is uncoated and unbleached. It has a pure, organic look ideal for dyeing, screen printing, or custom finishing.
