100% Cotton Fabric by the Yard

A+ Better Business Bureau Rating

General 100% COTTON FABRIC FACTS:

Cotton is soft, breathable and releases people’s perspiration fast. It withstands heat and can last for many years. Cotton often times needs ironing, yet is considered to be low maintenance and easy to wash and tumble dry or hang on a clothes line.

All of our Fabrics have a Less than 1% Shrinkage, including the Cotton fabrics.

Note from Linda: The Less than 1% Shrinkage is an important fact to me because many other 100 percent cotton fabric will shrink too much. Zazzle’s quality fabrics however, including the custom 100% cotton fabrics by the yard, shrink Less than 1%.

Linda’s Combed Cotton Review:

Custom Print Quality and Characteristic:

Great character and interesting weave. My swatch sample is a little deeper in color than the image on the site. When looking closely at my fabric sample you can see the tightly woven grain with very, very subtle flecks within it giving it a rich artistic look.

When held up to my glass window, the fabric becomes brighter and more vibrant yet not very translucent, giving you privacy if used as a window treatment.

Fabric Weight and Feel:

Although Zazzle describes this as lightweight, PRIOR to washing, I feel the fabric is slightly stiffer and a bit firmer than I would have thought. The slightly stiffer feel may not be as conducive for draping purposes, such as curtains, draperies or clothing, that you would like to drape nice and softly.

Visual and Touch COMPARISON to the other Fabrics:

Compared to both of the Polyester Fabrics, the Combed Cotton is not as bright and vibrant as the Polyester but much better than I was expecting. When I first looked at the 100% Custom Cotton Fabric I was impressed. Seeing them side by side with the polyester fabrics, I can see they are not quite as vibrant.

This Combed Cotton is definitely brighter and more vibrant than the Pima Cotton and only a bit brighter than the Twill. It doesn’t drape as well as the Pima Cotton and the Cotton Twill fabrics. The Pima Cotton and Cotton Twill Fabrics have a tighter weave.

Compared to the Ivory Linen and the Natural Linen, this Combed Cotton Fabric is brighter and more tightly woven and not as stiff as both of the linens. The linens have a more rustic organic look.

Some of Linda’s Opinions for Fabric Uses:

In my opinion, this fabric will be awesome for many home decor ideas such as accent pillows, valances and cornices, table clothes, wall hangings or even framed photo fabrics and more. Although Zazzle doesn’t mention this, I think this fabric will be a wonderful lightweight Cotton Upholstery Fabric.

My Summary:

I am very pleased with the quality and the custom printing, which is a bit deeper than shown, but very rich and impressive. The custom photo prints were better than I was expecting.

In my opinion the 100% Combed Cotton Fabric will be amazing for many home decor enhancements and gifts. This fabric is wonderful as Photo Fabric, Your Artwork Images, Unique Custom Designs by you or choose one of my designs.

Prior to washing, a little stiffer than expected, making it not as suitable for a soft looking draping but the stiffer feel seems perfect for other home décor, quilting, craft projects and wonderful for Upholstering Fabric.

Printing Process:

The Direct Print Process is an incredible state of the art technique creating a fantastic clarity for a print that won’t fade in your wash or over time.

 Note from Linda:

I used a hotter iron and used a slightly damp cloth to press. This is not Zazzle’s recommendation, so do so at your own risk. I find that most cotton fabrics can often withstand a hotter iron.

 

 

Linda’s Pima Cotton Review:

 

Custom Print Quality and Characteristic:

The custom printing turned out a bit darker and less vivid than my brightly colored Personalized Photo Fabric. The printing brightens up near natural lighting both in front of the fabric or behind it.

 

Fabric Weight and Feel:

As I look closely at the Pima Cotton Custom Fabric, I see that it is very tightly woven and has a soft luxurious feel.

 

Visual and Touch COMPARISON to the other Fabrics:

This fabric comes alive and is beautiful against the windows natural lighting.

 

The Cotton Pima and the Cotton Twill fabrics feel very similar to each other. The Custom Photos on the Cotton Twill Fabric are brighter than the Pima Cotton, yet both light up nicely in natural light.

 

For a refined soft feeling fabric that is tightly woven and drapes beautifully, in my opinion, it will be incredible for apparel, quilting, home decor and high end crafts.

 

Some of Linda’s Opinions for Fabric Uses:

Because of the soft gentle draping quality, Pima Cotton will be a wonderful fabric for curtains, draperies and special occasions table cloths.

 

Enhance your home with these Unique Cotton Fabric choices. Make Luxurious decorator throw pillows and many other fine home decorating embellishments.

 

Pima Cotton is a beautiful soft feeling fabric which will flow and drape beautifully and will be wonderful for making clothing and many home decorations. Also see Zazzle’s suitability recommendations and uses. (See Zazzle’s Use Disclaimer above).

 

 

My Summary:

Pima Cotton is wonderful for clothing and high end refined home decorating. The draping is absolutely beautiful. Be aware that the printing comes out a little darker and significantly less vivid on brightly colored designs and photo images.

 

As a Photo Fabric, I was disappointed how the Photo colors were less vivid than the other cotton and polyester fabrics. It is significantly less vibrant and somewhat darker than shown on the Zazzle fabric page, as well.

If you are looking for bright, vibrant Photo printing, you may wish to consider both of the Polyester Fabrics or the 100% Combed Cotton Fabric and 100% Cotton Twill Fabric.

 

Without having each of the seven fabrics laying side by side (see Fabric Comparison Photo), you may not notice the lack of vibrancy.

 

Consider Pima Cotton Fabric by the Yard if you are looking for a wonderful beautifully flowing fabric that will feel lovely to the touch. Pima Cotton is an elegant flowing fabric for home decor and clothing conducive for softer looking designs.

Linda’s Cotton Twill Review:

Custom Print Quality and Characteristic:

I am very pleased with how vibrant and beautiful the photos turned out on the Cotton Twill fabric swatches. A tad darker than the website shows, but I was not expecting both the Cotton Twill and the Combed Cotton to show off my photos as nicely as they do.

Fabric Weight and Feel:

Although Zazzle describes this as a medium weight fabric, I would venture to say it is light to medium weight, with a surprisingly soft feel and nice draping qualities.

It is tightly woven, giving it that soft feel, yet has an interesting tiny textured appearance with teeny tiny flex. I love how it gives my Photos an interesting Artistic look.

Visual and Touch COMPARISON to the other Fabrics

In my opinion, this is the second softest and draping fabric next to the Pima Cotton. Weave appears more tightly woven with less texture and flex and lighter weight than the Combed Cotton. Just a tad less vibrant. Both polyester fabrics are the most vibrant of all the fabric types Zazzle offers.

Some of Linda’s Opinions for Fabric Uses:

The Cotton Twill, like the other 100% custom cotton fabrics seems to lend itself to almost any Home Decorating ideas. Here are just a few Cotton Twill Fabric Decorating that I think will be great: Upholstery, Home Accents, Fabric Wall Decor, Throw Pillows, Placemats, Table Cloths, Curtains and Draperies, Clothing and Apparel and it is amazing for Quilting and Crafts. I see it as an all around fabric with the limitations expressed above by Zazzle. (See Zazzle’s Use Disclaimer above).

My Summary:

Cotton Twill Fabric by the Yard is a wonderful and highly versatile and interesting fabric choice. It’s suitable for an array of clothing and home décor projects. Quilters will love the feeling of this medium to light weight fabric which is also conducive for lightweight Upholstery and MANY other home decorating ideas.

I am very pleased with the overall look and feel of the Cotton Twill fabric and would recommend it for those who especially love 100% Cotton fabrics.

General POLYESTER FABRIC FACTS:

Current Polyesters have a nice feel and drape. It used to have a bad reputation but now days, it is difficult to tell the difference between polyester and some other fabrics.

It is a strong wrinkle resistant fabric which keeps it’s shape. Polyester fabrics wear well and are resistant to biological damage.

100% Polyester Fabrics can be soft, such as our Zazzle Polyester Fabrics and very smooth as well.

Easy to care for, machine washable but take care not to use a hot iron on Polyester as it can scorch. Note from Linda: I rarely need to iron Polyester because it is so wrinkle resistant.
