Hello what weight would you recommend for quality totebags?

[@user-my8tf8vo2y]

What canvas would you recommend for grill covers that are always outside?

[@lalizzyg07]

what weight would you recommend for making year round clothing for children? (live on a farm and regular clothing from the store gets holes in it too quickly)

[@onlinefabricstore]

Canvas can be a little stiff especially for children's clothing. Its a great price point though, so you could use between 7-12 oz. If you are looking for something that is a little more comfy, would probably recommend a really high quality linen instead of canvas. This would be my recommendation for children's clothing - www.onlinefabricstore.com/product-group-linen.aspx?product=belgian-linen

What weight would you recommend for tote bags? :)

[@onlinefabricstore]

What canvas would you recommend for an overcoat?

[@k_sey.9370]

What weight of canvas would you recommend for a grilling apron with pockets?

[@onlinefabricstore]

I would say a 10 or 12 oz canvas would be best for aprons! My personal preference would be 10 oz (www.onlinefabricstore.net/60-inch-single-fill-10-oz-duck-fabric-.htm) but 12 would not be too stiff.

I just got a few yards of canvas but it wrinkled tremendously when I washed it, I need it to make work pants. What oz should I be using?

[@onlinefabricstore]

Canvas is going to wrinkle a little when you wash it.. I would use #8 cotton duck (which is quite heavy but will make a great work pant if tailored appropriately!) You can find this material here - www.onlinefabricstore.com/no-8-natural-cotton-duck-fabric-.htm

Hi! What would you recommend for photography purpose to get digital prints on it?

[@onlinefabricstore]

You are looking in the right direction! Cotton fabric is the best for digital prints. I would say that you want the 7 or 12 oz. duck. You can find them here - www.onlinefabricstore.net/product-group-canvas.aspx

That is the weight. The 10oz is going to be thicker than the 7

Canvas is not cotton.

[@onlinefabricstore]

Canvas is a broad term that can be used for different types of fabric. It is typically made out of 100% cotton fibers but it can also be made out of synthetic fibers or a blend of cotton and synthetic materials.

[@stel1000]

@@onlinefabricstore The word "canvas" is derived from the 13th century Anglo-French canevaz and the Old French canevas. Both may be derivatives of the Vulgar Latin cannapaceus for "made of hemp", originating from the Greek κάνναβις (cannabis).[2][3] canvas (plural canvases) (see usage notes) A type of coarse cloth, woven from hemp, useful for making sails and tents or as a surface for paintings. quotations

@@onlinefabricstore straight from Wikipedia. And from a guy in this case me, that has 2 MSc . I’m sorry to be this guy that destroys all your thoughts and “knowledge” but I also known how usually they are referring to cotton fabrics. But this is not what canvas is . This is what they make a copy of canvas like, because cannabis as a material is restricted if not forbidden in many countries and that makes it pricier than the real thing and harder to find. But you’re making an educational video here, aren’t you?
