Poly Cotton Broadcloth Fabric 60in Wide - Sage 50 Yard Roll

In this review of the Barcelonetta poly cotton broadcloth, the bottom line is simple: sewists and small-scale makers who need a lightweight, breathable and easy-care fabric for linings, skirts, tote bags and home textiles will find good value in this 50 yard sage roll. The reviewer liked the balanced 35% cotton and 65% polyester blend for combining the softness of cotton with polyester's wrinkle resistance and durability, and found the wide 60in roll especially convenient for cutting continuous lengths for larger projects.

Key Features

• 35% Cotton, 65% Polyester blend: Provides a soft hand from cotton while the polyester adds strength and better wrinkle resistance for everyday use.
• 60in width: The extra width makes it easy to cut wide panels for curtains, skirts or tote bags without seams.
• Lightweight and breathable: Feels airy against the skin, suitable for linings and garments that need ventilation.
• Beginner friendly fabric: Handles predictably on the sewing machine and tolerates minor mistakes, which is helpful for new sewists.
• Easy care: Machine wash warm and tumble dry low or air dry to maintain color and fabric integrity with minimal effort.

Who It's For

The fabric is aimed at hobby sewists, crafters, and small-batch makers who want a dependable and versatile broadcloth for projects such as linings, lightweight garments, tote bags, and home textile accents. The 50 yard roll suits those who need continuous yardage for multiple projects or to avoid repeat ordering and mismatched dye lots.

Those who need a heavy, tightly woven upholstery textile or a thick insulating fabric should look elsewhere; some customers noted that the thickness can be on the thinner side, so projects that require substantial body or heavyweight drape may require a lining or interfacing to compensate.
