Are you creative? Then you’ve got to read this.
I’m Judy not Ken. I have used this “material” for so many projects it is hard to remember them all. It is great for bulletin board background and for any object that you may want to add. I painted some white “fabric” to match the colors in my bedroom and made cornices for the windows in my bedroom. Most of the time I use double sided tape to “ sew” with. Now, this is not the type of tape used in wrapping paper. This tape comes in a roll without a dispenser. I made a Christmas tree draw string cover bag. It also can be sewn with a sewing machine just like regular fabric. But do not iron it! And I made curtains for my French doors. I covered seat cushions for my dining table chairs. I covered the cushions of my kitchen bar stools. Both of these projects used piping. I covered a bed pillow for decoration. It is great for making costumes. I’ll stop there because you get the idea. This can be used for about any project you can imagine. I’m in the process of making a sliding cable canopy for my back patio. I tested the material in the hot sun, rain and wind and it did great. I know it seems like you are getting more material than you could ever use but I’ve used up 4 huge rolls and just bought two more. I like the white because you can paint it any color you want. Buy this nonwoven material and get creative.

Great product with many uses -- Use your imagination!
This a very inexpensive alternative to woven fabric. It looks good, is super easy to cut, and works well. I used it to swag the front of the stage you see in the picture with rope lights behind. The fabric softened and diffused the light beautifully for a pleasant glow. Pleating the fabric was easy, although it is stiff for a fabric and did not drape by itself. It had to be fluffed and guided a bit.Inexpensive, easy to work with, roll up, and re-use. In fact the wrinkles from heavy pleating came out of it when it was rolled up and later opened up. Hold pins well, is not shiny, is translucent. No experience on how it sews, but I would think it would sew ok, but the seams would not be terribly strong. Great for crafts, decorating, or anything where you need a lot of fabric for a small amount of money.

Thin fabric, good for crafting but gluing is tricky
I ordered this on accident after looking at several rolls of paper for a large project I had, so when it arrived I was surprised it was fabric and not paper at all. I used it anyway out of curiosity and found that it would certainly be useful in a lot of crafts I can think of. Its a very thin fabric but doesn't rip easy like a paper towel. I was covering large boxes to look like Mario blocks for a party and it glued to the cardboard just fine. The only issue I had was that the fabric would not glue to itself with any kind of liquid glue (and I have many different kinds I tried from school glue to rubber cement to fabric glue). The only thing that worked was hot glue and you could see it since the fabric is so thin so it looked bad. I had to cut it to fit the surface exactly, I couldn't glue overlap down. That was my only "gripe" while working with it.

Best purchase for my bulletin boards!
I teach 6th grade and am sick of having to change my bulletin board paper every year because the paper has faded and/or ripped. This year, I decided to try this craft paper on my bulletin boards. So far, it has been awesome. It went up so easy, hasn't ripped or faded, and is so bright and vibrant on the walls. I was able to cover 3 large boards with the one roll and still have some left over. also, every teacher who has visited my classroom has commented about the craft paper and how wonderful it looks. I plan on getting more colors for different projects in my classroom.

Not bad.
I bought thos to make a pattern out of for clothing. Honestly I think I was expecting something completely different but this is not bad stuff. To give you an idea of what this feels like in person if you've ever worked in the medical field and have had to put those booties on your feet this is the same material. Another way that I can put it is it if you've ever had surgery and you've had to wear a disposable gown then this is the same material. Maybe slightly thinner. It's easy to cut and Sharpie does not bleed through.And it's easy to pin to fabric unlike craft paper because you're just going to get a bunch of holes in the paper. Theres plenty of this material on this tube too. I can make a lot of patterns.

great if you need a lot of material but can't afford real fabric
I love this stuff. This is my second time ordering it. Last year I used it in various projects. This time I ordered a big roll of it to make floor-to-ceiling room dividers in my studio apartment. Real fabric would be too expensive to do it all. This material looks just like real fabric and I don't have to sew up the ends that I cut, which is great because that would be a lot of sewing for all of these room dividers, and I don't have a sewing machine!

Patterning fabric
This stuff is stupendous! I use it for working up period patterns for small dolls. It doesn't unravel, tear or clump. Since it is so inexpensive I'm finding myself much less frustrated when a dress falls to fit or to fall correctly.The fabric itself is not beautiful. I got the white, hoping it was translucent enough to see pattern pieces in l through it. If the pattern lines are thick I can see them but otherwise I have to draw them on. The fabric is readily colored with virtually any medium (watercolor paints and gel pens excepted).I've also used the fabric as a quick and dirty sunscreen, a privacy curtain and wrapping paper.

Great coverage
Great for bulletin boards. The width covers the entire board without overlapping pieces. The fabric is light weight. Staple holes do not show keeping it looking neat during many display changes.
