What can you use our fabric for?

FabricMill fabrics are incredibly versatile and can be used for a wide range of projects around your home. From small accent pieces to major redesigns, here’s how our fabrics come to life:

  • Upholstery: Update sofas, chairs, and benches with durable fabrics like faux leather, Crypton, Revolution, and for furniture that lasts. For a cozy vibe, go for softer materials like velvet or chenille.

  • Curtains & Drapes: Whether you're after light, airy sheers or a more luxurious feel with contemporary geometric or damask, fabric for window treatments can change the entire mood of a room.

  • Accent Pillows & Throws: Add a new layer of comfort with embroidery, linen, or velvet fabric. These small pieces are a quick way to make a statement or complement other elements in the room.

  • Table Linens: Make your dining area stand out with custom tablecloths, placemats, or runners in damask, tapestry, or cotton prints.

  • Quilting & Crafting: Use cotton prints and solids for your quilting projects or get creative with novelty fabrics for DIY crafts like bags, cushions, and more.

  • Bedding: From duvet covers to pillowcases, fabrics like silk, cotton, and linen provide softness and durability to help you create the perfect bedroom retreat.

How to choose the right fabric

Choosing the right fabric is key to making sure your project turns out just as you envisioned. Here are a few things to consider:

  • Room Use: A fabric that works in the living room might not be the best choice for the patio. Go for something heavy-duty with a performance finish such as Crypton or Reveolution, in high-traffic spots; cottons and polyesters work well in lower-traffic areas.

  • Texture: Mix materials for a more layered look. Combine smooth cotton or linen with nubby tweeds or chenille to keep the room from feeling flat.

  • Light & Color: Fabric can look completely different depending on the light. Always test a swatch in the actual room before making your final choice.

  • Style: Pick fabric that reflects the mood you want—relaxed and lived-in, or structured and formal. It doesn’t have to match the furniture; it just has to go together with it.

  • Project Type: Not every fabric fits every task. Upholstery calls for strong weaves; curtains need fabrics that hang well. Quilting? Go for something soft, like cotton.

Mixing fabric styles at home

Mixing fabrics is an easy way to update your space without a major change. Try pairing a bold pattern with smaller prints or combining different textures for an interesting feel. A floral pillow on a striped chair or linen curtains next to a velvet sofa—these all work as long as the colors and patterns blend well.

The trick to mixing fabrics is finding balance. Fabrics should complement each other, not compete. The goal is to create a look that feels cohesive and flows naturally.
