Description

100% Hemp 8 Ounce Canvas by the Yard (59 Inches Wide)

Sturdy and affordable 100% hemp fabric for all your projects. This 8 ounce hemp canvas is strong but light-weight, but has a thicker and sturdier feel than you might expect from 8 oz. cotton canvas. For reference it feels almost as thick as the denim of a pair of jeans, but not quite. Maybe more like a pair of painters pants or Dickies®. 

This fabric is NOT pre-shrunk. You will need to wash, dry, and press before cutting any patterns, as there is a decent amount of shrinkage the first time it is washed and dried. After that it is very stable with no additional shrinkage evident in our testing and experience. You will loose about 7% of your cut fabric length to shrinkage — but that also means your thickness increases and the weave becomes tighter.

(Fun fact — The lengthwise threads (warp) are pulled under much more tension during the weaving process than the widthwise threads (weft). So when washing for the first time, these warp threads are finally allowed to go back to the relaxed state where their friends, the weft threads, already are in their happy place. So all the shrinkage occurs in the warp direction, and there is little or no shrinkage in the weft direction. Cool huh?) 

Here’s how a 1 yard piece (for example) measures up before and after washing:

Size before washing: 36 inches x 59 inches (200 GSM)
Size after washing: 33.5 inches x 59 inches (225 GSM)

We intend to gradually add more colors to inventory. So please let us know if you have any specific color requests.

  1. beekeeperjoy1

    beautiful fabric, well woven, I’m happy.

  2. Dennis

    Ordered this at the same time as the black cloth (see my other review). I’m happy with the cloth and the store and will likely buy again!

  3. Dennis

    I had some questions before purchase and Lorie was quick and helpful with answers. My order was shipped quickly and carefully, and the cloth was exactly as described. I’m looking forward to working with it, and I expect to make future purchases!

  4. fleecewoman

    Ordered two colors in this fabric. Looking forward to using hemp, knowing that there are many uses for the entire plant. Working with the seller was easy and quick as I needed washing and drying instructions! My order arrived quickly.

  5. fleecewoman

    This fabric has a deep color and is very substantial, not a flimsy fabric. I received my order quickly and efficiently. Contact with owner was easy and quick regarding wash/dry instructions! I am looking forward to creating with hemp!

  6. Marcia

    The fabric arrived in good time and quality looks just as described in the listing. I look forward to sewing with it.

  7. Donna

    This fabric is everything I hoped it would be and had been wishing I could find. Nice, medium weight woven. You could tell it’s high quality and durable by the feel – even if you didn’t know it’s hemp. Smooth, not rough. I’m using it for the outside of my storage bags & pouches, etc. (I call them Organjanizers (c) and sell them here on Etsy). Beautiful color — I think of it as emerald green. Pretty sure I’ll be ordering more when I use this up.

  8. Jasmine Stewart

    Material is thick, but still soft. Feels thinner than canvas but thicker than regular cotton. Very good quality hemp fabric. Shipping was faster than expected, the quickest delivery I’ve had all year! I can’t wait to use this fabric!

  9. beekeeperjoy1

    good quality! The color is a bit brighter green than I expected, but I suspect that’s monitor issues. My expectations were met and then some! Made this for my husband, he loves it! Please get more dyed hemp!

  10. Patty

    Great fabric, fine delivery. Very happy, thanks

  11. Patty
