Frequently Asked Questions
What is broadcloth fabric?
Broadcloth is a tightly woven, plain-weave fabric with a smooth finish. The poly-cotton blend adds wrinkle resistance and durability while keeping the natural breathability of cotton. It's the standard fabric for dress shirts, scrubs, and lightweight apparel.
Does poly cotton shrink?
Minimal shrinkage — the polyester content stabilizes the fabric. Expect less than 2% on first wash. Pre-washing is recommended for precision projects but not strictly required.
Can I use this for quilting?
Yes. The 58-60" width works for quilt backing and large blocks. The smooth weave accepts quilting stitches well. For a pure cotton option, see our cotton fabric collection.
Is broadcloth see-through?
Broadcloth is lightweight but not sheer in most colors. Darker colors have full opacity. Very light colors (white, pastels) may benefit from a lining in fitted garments.
