Chenille Fabric is a luxuriously soft, textured fabric known for its plush, velvety surface and durable woven construction. Named after the French word for "caterpillar," chenille features a fuzzy, tufted pile that enhances its warmth and comfort. This 100% polyester fabric, weighing 350 GSM and 60 inches wide, is ideal for large-scale upholstery projects, home décor, apparel, and creative costumes. Ultra-soft and velvety, it provides a rich, plush feel while remaining durable, long-lasting, and resilient for everyday use.

Perfect for sofas, cushions, drapes, bedspreads, chairs, ottomans, theatrical outfits, jackets, and winterwear, this versatile fabric ensures easy maintenance with wrinkle and stain resistance. Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water, tumble dry on low heat, and occasionally fluff high-traffic areas to maintain the plush texture. Avoid harsh detergents or high heat to preserve the fabric's integrity and premium quality.

Not sure about the color? We highly recommend ordering a sample swatch first to see the color and fabric in person. Colors may vary slightly due to screen settings and dye lots. Returns are accepted in accordance with our return policy and are subject to applicable restocking fees.

Dye Lot Variations

A Note About Dye Lots  Dye lots may vary slightly from order to order. As one fabric roll sells out and a new roll is opened, subtle color variations may occur. If matching a specific shade is important, we recommend ordering a sample swatch to view our current dye lot before placing your order.

Full Piece and/or Splits

Full Pieces & Splits

We always do our best to provide your order in one continuous piece whenever possible. However, as fabric rolls are completed or depending on how they arrive from the mill, an order may occasionally include more than one piece. Some mill-direct rolls may also contain splits within the roll.

For this reason, we cannot guarantee one continuous piece. If continuous yardage is important for your project, please contact our team before ordering so we can check availability for you.

This chenille is perfect for my project!

This chenille is perfect for my project!. A friend began fly fishing (🙄 I know, right?) and wanted sleeves to put longer sections of his fishing rod in to prevent damage. This fit the bill perfectly!

Frequently asked questions

My venue requires fire certification — does this qualify?
Yes, and you can prove it. This Chenille Fabric is inherently fire retardant (IFR) and certified to NFPA 701, tested and reviewed by laboratories for indoor flame retardancy. Fire marshals and venues that require certified FR documents before installation can be given the NFPA 701 certificate, which is available on request. That's the key word — inherently: the retardancy is in the fiber, not a coating that washes out.
Is chenille durable enough for upholstery?
This one is — it's built heavier than apparel chenille. At 350 GSM and 100% polyester with a durable woven construction, it's made for home decor and upholstery as well as apparel. The fuzzy, tufted pile gives that plush velvety surface and warmth, while the polyester base resists the crushing and wear that flatten cheaper chenilles. For high-traffic seating we'd still recommend a swatch rub-test, but the weight class is right.
