      Fabric Great…but

      "The color was not what I saw on the site. Site photo is much more green (what I was looking for) and the swatch has more white. I could go with green & cream but nit white."

      Darlene P. (5/5)

      Great fabric

      "Easy to sew. Soft to the touch. Made a beautiful cushion."

      "I am so pleased with this fabric so far. I loved that the pattern went clear to the selvage edge. The cutting edge was very straight, which helped to have less waste. I liked the coating on the back, it didn’t make the fabric too stiff. My regular sewing machine could sew through 4 layers. There was also very little fraying. Haven’t had to clean yet. The rv cushions I made with it turned out beautiful. I would buy fabric from Revolution Performance Fabric again. Highly recommend"

      Q&A

      Can this fabric be used for drapes?
      Downton is designed for upholstery and is Railroaded in it's orientation.
      IS THIS FABRIC DOG FRIENDLY?
      I would recommend Macarena, Hailey, or Brightside. Typically fabrics that are tightly woven are more dog friendly than herringbones. Herringbones are susceptible to catching dog nails than plain or basket weave type fabrics listed above.
      HOW MUCH IS THIS FABRIC PER YARD?
      Downton is $22.95 per yard. Orders over $100 receive free shipping
      isn't polypropylene generally considered TOXIC to use indoors, or to have prolonged skin contact with? I tend to sit on my sofa's, so it's a concern. Beautiful fabric, but wish you made it in actual cotton or pre-CRCOTN--if you do, would love to purchase!! Thanks!
      Good Morning , Polypropylene is a nontoxic synthetic fiber . We are Greenguard Gold certified making our fabrics safe to use in schools and hospital settings . Polypropylene is considered the safest of all synthetic fibers and plastics because of its heat tolerance, incredible resistance to absorbing moisture , light fastness, non leaching capabilities, and its cleanability . OSHA and the International Agency for Research on Cancer also deam polypropylene as non carcinogenic making it the safest synthetic fiber and plastic to use. In addition to being nontoxic , we also don’t use PFAS like a cotton performance fabric would need to make them stain resistant . Additionally , cotton weaving can promote a more dangerous work environment due to the chemicals used to dye cotton , as well as the flammability of the cotton dust. Cotton also uses an immense amount of water and dangerous chemicals that aren’t environmentally friendly and promote dangerous work environments for workers .
