AK TRADING CO. Muslin Fabric/Textile - Draping Fabric - Black 5 Yards Medium Weight - 100% Cotton (60in. Wide)

nicely woven, medium weight muslin. washed well w no dissernable shrinkage. full yardage.a nice product at a fair price, imo.no stink, even muslin color. i bought unbleached.

Just the right fabric to make my Cathedral Windows quilt. Reasonable price and high quality.

I pre-washed this black cotton and found minimal shrinkage and very little wrinkling. The weave is compact and tight. Although it is thin, in combination with interfacing and decorative fabrics, it makes a great base for bags and many other sewing projects. This fabric holds its form and is easy to sew. All-around, this is a wonderful quality for a small price! I will definitely buy this again, and again!

This is good muslin. It has a tight weave and consistency. The color is uniform throughout. I really did not know what to expect but I am very pleasantly surprised. Good value. When this runs out, I will be buying more of the same. EDIT: the above review was written for the natural colored muslin, the off white. I have recently ordered the same quantity in black. The black is thin, and when I hold it up to the light, I can see through it. The black yardage is simply not the same quality as the natural. I washed the black and let it hang to dry. I always do this with new yardage. I’ve ironed it several times and cannot get the wrinkles out. The weave of the fiber didn’t tighten up during the wash or drying process. Very disappointed in the black. I will order more if the natural in the future but not anymore if the black. I give the black muslin one star.

I’m slightly disappointed that this didn’t come on a bolt, like some muslin I’ve seen while packing at Amazon.It’s folded multiple times, and not in a way you see it roll off a bolt at a fabric store cutting table. It’s kind of hard to unfold a ten-yard amount on my not-so-big cutting/pattern table in my small apartment, to cut out two to three yards, then struggle to get the remainder to be folded neatly enough to fit into my fabric drawer. I was considering on buying only the amount I needed for each project, but it seems it costs less buying the bulk, plus I needed this material to practice out garments before the final project, so it’ll be used a lot.The quality of the fabric, I have no complaints about though. It was a medium-weight thickness, easy to sew with, and does the job I intended it for.Something I didn’t know, this fabric is hard to iron out wrinkles after preshrinking in the wash. I even took it out before it was completely dry to steam iron.I’ve never tried it before, but I heard you can preshrink wrinkle-prone fabrics like this type and linen using a steamer instead of washing and drying? I think I’ll try that next time. See if that makes things easier.

Totally worth it. This is a LOT of frantic. I use this for making mock-ups and it’s great to not have to worry about using it all up.

Estupendo

The fabric itself is okay; a pretty coarse muslin. I wanted cheap for making garment tests, and this fits the bill.The product photo shows a bolt of fabric, but it actually arrives in a folded-up package, with the folding going in a direction that you can't use bit-by-bit. I didn't enjoy ten minutes of unwrapping, trying to re-fold ten yards of fabric onto its long dimension, and rolling it back up onto a used cardboard bolt form. I'm also not looking forward to having to iron it before every use. If it had arrived well-packaged in a bolt, I could unwrap a yard or two without much in the way of wrinkles and use it straight away.
