7oz Cotton Canvas Fabric / Duck Cloth – Natural (72" Width)

Our 7oz cotton canvas fabric (single-fill duck cloth) in Natural and 72" width delivers the same soft drape and easy sewability you love—now in an extra-wide format. The wider width helps reduce seams on backdrops, stage flats, photo/video backgrounds, large drapery panels, tablecloths, room dividers, and other oversized projects. It’s also excellent for bag liners, pillow covers, aprons, banners, and student-grade artist canvas. Note: 7oz is slightly sheer; darker substrates may show through when layered beneath.

The Natural (undyed/unbleached) finish offers a clean, organic look, perfect for both wholesale and DIY use. If you need heavier-duty performance, see our 10oz cotton duck or 12oz cotton duck options. Explore more weights and colors in Cotton Canvas Fabric.

FAQ

Is 7oz cotton duck durable?
Yes—while lightweight, the plain-weave duck is strong for decorative and light-duty uses. For heavier-duty applications, consider 10oz cotton duck or 12oz cotton duck.

Is this fabric good for large backdrops?
Absolutely. The 72" wide format minimizes seams, making it ideal for backdrops, stage flats, and wide drapery panels. The 7oz weight provides a soft drape and is easy to hang or staple.

Can I use this for painting?
Yes—great as a student-grade artist canvas. Because it’s a lighter weight duck, it won’t deliver an ultra-smooth, heavy-body surface; it’s best for smaller works, studies, and craft-grade canvases rather than large stretched canvases. Many artists like its natural tooth for underpaintings and mixed media.

Can this fabric be FR treated?
It is not FR treated off the roll, but can be treated upon request depending on project and volume.
