100% Cotton Fabric: Muslin, Canvas, Flannel & More

There are many different types of 100% cotton fabrics. Each type has its own unique characteristics and uses. Some common types include muslin (a plain weave used for garments), oxford (a mid- weight basketweave for clothing), denim (a twill weave for jeans and jackets), calico (a plain weave for quilting), and canvas duck (a heavyweight often used for outdoor applications).

100% cotton fabrics are known for their breathability, softness, and durability. They are also easy to care for and can be machine washed and dried. Because of these characteristics, popular uses for 100% cotton fabrics include linings, garments, bedding, towels, bags, quilts, and other household items. Heavier weight cottons, such as duck, are often used for making tents, backpacks, sails, and other outdoor gear.
