Upholstery fabric Upholstery fabric is a durable woven fabric primarily made to upholster furniture and durable enough to last. Lighter upholstery fabrics can be used for more than upholstering furniture: pillows, curtains, bedding, or crafts. Whether you are looking for a new covering for your living room sofa, or new upholstery for your favorite easy chair, Fabric Guru is your premier destination for upholstery material online at discount and closeout pricing. Common misspellings include upholstry fabric, upolstery fabric, uphostery fabric, upolstry fabric, and upholsery fabric.

Upholstery Fabric Types

At Fabric Guru, you will find a great selection of upholstery fabric types, including:

Cotton is one of the most popular choices known for its durability and comfort. Cotton fabrics are also easy to clean and maintain.

Polyester – This synthetic fabric is highly resistant to wear and tear, making it ideal for high-traffic areas in your home or office. Additionally, polyester has been treated with an anti-static finish which helps repel dust and dirt from settling on the surface.

Vinyl – If you want something waterproof and durable, vinyl upholstery fabric is the way to go. Vinyl also has resistance to stains, mildew, and abrasion making it a great choice for outdoor furniture applications.

Velvet  – Velvet is known for its luxurious feel and rich color. It offers excellent abrasion resistance and is easy to clean with mild detergents.

We also carry many fabrics you won't find in your average fabric store, including chenille, basketweave, plaid, and our high-end Italian selections. With Fabric Guru, you can find all of the upholstery fabric types you need to make your home or office look great at prices that fit any budget.

What Fabric is Best for Upholstery?


When selecting upholstery fabric, there are several factors to consider. Consider the type of furniture you will cover and the amount of wear and tear it will experience. If your furniture is in a high-traffic area or you have children or pets, look for sturdy fabrics resistant to stains, dirt, and mildew.

Is the price per yard or all yards listed?

Remnants are priced for the entire amount listed. We also have a huge selection of fabric that is sold by the yard. The price and yards available will be listed.

How can Fabric Guru pricing be so low?

As well as stocking today's newest fabrics from the leading designers, we specialize in buying large lots, store liquidations, remnants, closeouts, and overruns. Because of these buying methods, we are able to sell many items below wholesale cost, often resulting in a 50%-90% savings from normal retail prices. Our fabrics are also inspected by trained experts to insure top quality. The deal is real!

Do I have to have an account to place an order?

No. You may create an account to review orders later and to save your personal information like your name and address to make future ordering easier, but account creation is entirely optional.

Do you have more yards available than what is listed?

Many times we do. Use the search box or the advanced search located at the top-center of each page to help find additional remnant pieces or inquire if you need more yardage than is listed for fabric sold by the yard.

Two fabrics look the same but are described a little different, are they the same?

If the fabrics are the same in the picture then they are the same fabric. Each fabric is listed on our web site individually. We add hundreds of new fabrics each week and may get duplicate fabrics weeks apart. Sometimes the description of colors and patterns are a little different. We do our best to describe each fabric accurately using the highest quality images. Dye lots can vary especially in printed fabrics. If two or more pieces of the same pattern and color are purchased at the same time we will compare the fabrics before shipping to make sure the fabrics are a match. We will contact you before shipping if there is a problem.

If I order multiple pieces of the same fabric will the dye lots be the same?

Dye lots can vary especially in printed fabrics. If two or more pieces of the same pattern and color are purchased at the same time we will compare the fabrics before shipping to make sure the fabrics are a match. We will contact you before shipping if there is a problem.

How long will it take to get my order?

Most orders are shipped within 1-2 business days. Samples ship in 2-3 business days. Arrival times depend on your location. We make every effort to ensure expedited orders do not experience delays to accommodate time sensitive projects.

What methods of payment do you accept?

We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express and PayPal. You can place your order on our website through our secure online ordering process or call us at 1-866-790-4289 Monday thru Friday 9:00am to 5:00pm CST to place your order via telephone. We do not accept checks or money orders.

What’s the difference between “by the yard” fabric and remnants?

Remnants are “leftover” pieces from larger, by the yard, bolts of fabric. Whenever we have only a small amount of fabric left on a “by the yard” bolt, we convert it to a remnant and sell the whole yardage as one piece. By the yard is great for larger projects or specific yardage requirements, but remnants are perfect for smaller projects or just when you need a little fabric to sew with.

Do you carry apparel fabric?

While some materials in upholstery and drapery fabrics can be used as apparel fabric, we do not sell apparel-specific fabrics or materials.

Is Fabric Guru on social media?

We are! Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest to get the latest information on sales and markdowns.

Some of the fabrics in The Fabric Cellar are flawed, what do the flaws mean?

Occasionally we get fabric seconds or otherwise flawed pieces of material, but that doesn’t mean they’re useless! We carefully inspect every piece that comes through our doors, and obsessively note every flaw. We also take an individual picture of each flawed piece, just to make it easier for our customers to make an informed purchase decision. You might find that some flaws won’t affect your project as much as others, shop smart!

Once I place an order, can I edit or cancel my order?

Once an order is marked as “Completed”, an order cannot be edited or cancelled. We generally complete the processing of orders the same business day, so if you need to make a change to your order before is has been completed, please call us immediately. If you place an order after hours, you may Cancel it online so long as it is before we complete it the next business day.

How is your fabric rolled onto the tube?

All rolled fabric is rolled with the face of the fabric on the inside. This is to ensure that if any damage is done to the packaging in shipping, the fabric will still remain clean on the front side. When you receive a roll, make sure to check both sides of the fabric before making any decisions.

Do I have to pay sales tax?

We automatically collect sales tax in many regions. However, even if we don't collect sales tax, it is your responsibility to comply with the reporting and filing requirements within your region. For sales delivered or sourced to Washington, the state requires you to file a use tax return when sales tax is not paid at the time of purchase (this message is required under the Revised Code of Washington 82.13.020(2)(a)(i)).
