Moderno Woven Tapestry Fabric | Geometric & Tropical Patterns (320gsm)

Add texture, depth, and bold design to your interiors with our Moderno Woven Tapestry Fabric. Unlike flat printed fabrics, this collection features intricate designs woven directly into the cloth, creating a rich, premium texture that feels as good as it looks.

Weighing in at 320 GSM, this is a substantial, heavyweight fabric. It offers the durability needed for upholstery projects while maintaining a soft drape for heavy curtains and soft furnishings.

Available Designs

• Gemstone (Geometric): A striking 3D cube pattern, perfect for retro or modern accent chairs.

• Palmer (Tropical): A lush, green palm leaf design to bring nature indoors.

• Seville & Merida (Chevron/Zigzag): Classic multi-coloured zigzags for a bohemian look.

• Valencia & Tavira: Intricate mosaic-style weaves.

Why Choose Moderno Tapestry?

Expert Sewing Tips for Tapestry

1. Prevent Fraying: Woven tapestry frays easily when cut. We recommend using an overlocker or a zigzag stitch on all raw edges immediately after cutting.

2. Needle Choice: Use a Jeans Needle (Size 90/14 or 100/16) to penetrate the thick weave without breaking.

3. Pattern Matching: These designs (especially the Geometric and Chevron) have a clear repeat. Always order 10-20% more fabric than you need so you can match the pattern across seams for a professional finish.
