44/45" 100% Cotton Woven Ticking, Cut by Yard, Stripe Red

The media could not be loaded. I originally purchased this fabric because I wanted make reusable, cloth Christmas gift wrappings. I knew they would look a bit "farmhouse" and primitive but I was fine with that. It works well with my vintage decor. I ended up loving it for wrapping material. I did not wash it and it is very stiff with starch but that worked great for wrapping. Some I made into flat wrappings and others into gift bags. The red color is perfect...a true medium cherry red...not scarlet....not wine. The white threads are really cream as you can see compared to the white crocheted throw. It is weighty and feels very durable. Even if I find I need to wash these wrappings from time to time, I know they will last for **years**. I even lined a wool cross-body bag I made with this fabric and the tight, heavy weave helped give the bag some body/structure. The stripe is truly woven in, not printed. I've now purchased MORE of this fabric...I don't even know what I'll make with it but it is so attractive, durable, and reasonably priced, I couldn't pass on the opportunity to have more in my stash. As I said, I haven't washed it so I can't speak to its color-fastness or shrinkage but, I suspect those won't be real issues.

I made a vintage looking straw mattress with it to put in our local museum. The fabric was perfect.

This is a nice heavy fabric & will hold up well as dog bed covers.

I bought this to make a Christmas journal. It worked great. More of a heavy material ~ not soft cotton but that’s what I was looking for.

I made curtains for our camper. They look great. Shipping was slow but price was good

Beautiful and easy to sew!

The quality of this ticking is excellent. It sewed up very nicely and now I have a new pillow! Old feathers love their new home.

Good durable fabric. No flaws
