Super soft rich fabric. Our Velveteen is a fabric of woven 100% cotton with a short close weft pile in imitation of velvet. It is stronger and denser than a rayon/silk velvet , and the pile is shorter. Takes the dye like crazy!

Not pure white but rather a very light cream this was a pleasant surprise for my project though! This veveteen is thinner than the stuff in Joann's and has very little velveteen sheen (shorter pile) but it is quite opaque despite that. It is difficult to see turned under seams which is rare for any white fabric.

This is fantastic fabric for dyeing! It is a customer favorite in my store. It is a good weight and very sturdy like the other reviewer said.

Using it for the backs for my silk hand made quilts. Adds warmth and softness that stays on the bed instead of sliding off.

Rating would be a 5 star except the selvedge unraveled while the yardage was being preshrunk in my front-loading washing machine. The unraveling wasn't a problem for my project but might be for someone else's project if they were counting on a firmly wovensolid selvedge edge.

A really nice weight and "hand" BUT a big caveat for Natural Dyers: this stuff has to have the snot boiled out of it during the scouring process as it is full of all kinds of crud deposited during manufacturing andor handling. Love the fabric otherwise and would give 5 stars though the treatments on fabric cannot be blamed on Dharma. (Who might want to make a note of this for future use by natural dyers!)

I absolutely LOVE this fabric. I use it to make dolls and it really does take dye so well. I am a newbie at dyeing but this was the best way to dip my toe in the water. It is the most affordable option I have found for velveteen which is so great. Thank you Dharma. You've made a customer for life out of me.

I loved the way the velveteen took the dye. I made some shibori pillows and they look great. The only suggestion I have is to preshrink the fabric. It shrank quite a bit length wise not salvage to salvage. Don't be afraid to wash in hot water ad throw in the dryer.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this fabric. I would say it is my favorite fabric I have ordered from Dharma. I have made clothing and blankets from this fabric and it has held up so well with repeated washing and ware from multiple children (handmedowns). The fabric takes the dye more intensely than any other fabric I have ever dyed! I wish I could have an entire wardrobe of clothing sewn of this fabric!!
