FabricLA Acrylic Felt Fabric 72 in Wide, 1.6mm Thick - Soft Craft Felt

In this review the FabricLA Acrylic Felt Fabric is assessed from the perspective of crafters and DIY hobbyists who need a soft, non-stiff felt by the yard. The bottom line: this 72 in wide, 1.6mm thick acrylic felt is best for projects that need a pliable yet sturdy material, and the single biggest reason to buy is the combination of generous width and consistent thickness that makes large surface projects, table covers and costume panels easy to cut, drape and glue without fraying. The review focuses on practical use, durability and value for yardage purchases.

Key Features

• SOLD BY INDIVIDUAL UNITS: Each quantity is shipped as a separate continuous piece, which helps when you need multiple identical lengths without seams or joints.
• 100% ACRYLIC FIBERS: The synthetic construction yields a soft, dense felt that resists unraveling and remains easy to cut and glue for clean craft edges.
• Large WIDTH: At 72 in wide the felt covers wide tables or large costume panels with fewer seams, saving time on alignment and finishing.
• Consistent THICKNESS: The 1.6mm thickness (about 160 gms/sq. yd.) gives a tactile, fuzzy surface useful for padding, gaming tables or decorative projects without feeling flimsy.
• PRECUT LENGTH OPTIONS: Available in precut continuous yard lengths so customers can choose the right amount for single projects or buy multiples as separate pieces.
• VERSATILE CRAFT USES: Works well for small pouches, felt flowers, table covers, costumes and temporary game surfaces because it is pliable and holds details.

Who It's For

This felt is aimed at makers who need wide, consistent material for sewing, reupholstery accents, holiday costumes or large craft backdrops where stability and a soft hand matter. Its width and thickness make it useful for converting a dining table into a game table or creating large decorative panels without seams.

Hobbyists who require specialty natural fibers, very thin craft felt, or a felt that needs to withstand heavy outdoor weather should look elsewhere; this is an indoor, acrylic felt optimized for crafts, home decor and costume work rather than heavy-duty industrial use.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Soft, dense acrylic construction that is easy to cut, glue and shape for craft projects.
• Wide 72 in roll reduces seams and is convenient for table covers and large costume pieces.
• 1.6mm thickness provides a cushioned feel ideal for gaming tables, padding and decorations.
• Sold as separate continuous pieces when multiple units are ordered, simplifying large jobs.

Cons

• As a synthetic acrylic felt, it is not the best choice for projects requiring natural fibers or outdoor durability.
• Precut lengths are fixed; customers needing nonstandard continuous yardage beyond offered sizes must request special arrangements.
