FabricLA Faux Fur Fabric by the Yard - Plush 2 in Pile, 20yd

In this review the FabricLA Faux Fur Fabric by the Yard is evaluated for crafters and sewers who need a large, plush faux fur for projects like costumes, plush toys, upholstery accents, and home decor. The single biggest reason to buy is the long 2 to 2.5 in pile that lends a luxurious, fluffy look and feel while being sold in custom-cut yard lengths so buyers can order separate pieces for multiple projects. This review focuses on texture, versatility, and practical details that matter when selecting faux fur for sewing or decoration.

Key Features

• Sold by the yard: Each order is custom cut into individual pieces so buyers receive separate lengths rather than one long continuous roll, which simplifies planning multiple projects.
• 2 to 2.5 in pile length: The thick, plush pile creates a soft, opulent surface ideal for visible trim, cozy blankets, or plush toy exteriors where a fluffy look is desired.
• Wide 60 in fabric: At 60 in wide the fabric covers large pattern pieces and reduces seams for garments, upholstery accents, and larger craft items.
• Hypoallergenic material: Marketed as safe for infants and family use, so it is suitable for projects intended for kids or people with sensitivities.
• Multiple color choices: Part of a collection of over 30 colors, offering plenty of options to match decor, costume palettes, or themed projects.
• Craft-focused sizing: The 20 yd total length option gives a cost-effective supply for makers needing multiple cuts or bulk material.

Who It's For

This faux fur is best for hobbyists, fursuit makers, costume designers, and home crafters who need a plush, visible pile and wide width to cover larger pattern pieces. The custom-cut yards are convenient for crafters who plan several separate projects or need specific lengths without buying more than necessary.

Those who need technical performance fabrics for heavy-duty upholstery with high abrasion tolerance or strict commercial flame-retardant certification should consider other specialty textiles; likewise, buyers who require perfectly non-shedding industrial-grade fur may want to test a small cut first, since customer feedback on shedding is mixed.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Soft, luxurious 2 to 2.5 in pile gives a premium, fluffy look and comfortable handfeel.
• Custom-cut yards and 60 in width make cutting and seam placement easier for large patterns.
• Wide selection of colors and a hypoallergenic claim make it versatile for family-safe projects.
• Good value for larger purchases like the 20 yd option when multiple pieces are needed.

Cons

• Reports on shedding and perceived thickness vary among customers, so results can differ by color and cut.
• Not marketed as an industrial upholstery textile, so heavy-use applications may require reinforced backing or treatment.

Our Verdict

The FabricLA Faux Fur Fabric is a strong choice for crafters and costume makers who want an ultra-fluffy, wide faux fur sold in custom yard lengths; its plush 2 to 2.5 in pile and 60 in width are especially useful for large pattern pieces and visible trims.
