This premium, cork fabric, also known as cork leather, is easy-to-sew through, pliable, and durable. Cork fabric has a similar handle to faux leather or genuine leather because it is soft, smooth, and pliable. It is not hard or brittle.
Its unique properties, eco-friendliness, and aesthetic appeal make it a versatile material for various projects. It can be used for bags, straps and handles, wallets, craft projects, applique, embroidery, home decor, and more.
Our high-quality cork fabric consists of a thin layer of 100% cork adhered to a fabric support backing, which is often a blend of polyester, cotton, and polyurethane. Our cork fabric can be found in a variety of thicknesses, textures, prints, and colors.

There are many benefits of sewing with cork fabric including that it is:
-
Easy to Cut & Sew - You don’t need any special tools or equipment to sew with cork fabric. View our growing collection of Sewing Patterns to find a project to use with this unique material.
-
Sustainable - Cork fabric is considered an eco-friendly material because it is harvested from the renewable bark of cork oak trees. The harvesting process does not harm the trees, and they continue to grow and produce cork for many years.
- Lightweight - 50% of its volume is air! This makes it ideal for bags.
- Washable & Stain Resistant - Simply wipe clean with soap and water periodically.
- Hypoallergenic - Cork fabric is resistant to dust, making it very unlikely to cause an allergic reaction. It is very gentle on your skin, which makes it ideal for bags, home decor, and craft projects.
- Durable - Cork ages without deteriorating mainly due to its resistance to moisture. Cork cells are packed closely together in radial rows. This honeycomb structure makes cork extremely durable and abrasion resistant.
- Water Resistant & Antimicrobial - This material does not allow water to pass through easily and inhibits the growth of bacteria and viruses.
- Unique - This fabric is all natural, soft, and flexible. No two pieces are alike!
Nuestro tejido de corcho de alta calidad es un producto natural. Se produce directamente a partir de la corteza del alcornoque. Una vez que se recoge el corcho del alcornoque, se hierve, se seca y se corta en láminas finas. Estas finas láminas de corcho están selladas con un sellador no tóxico y adheridas a un soporte de tela. Hay una variedad de tipos de respaldo disponibles, como tejido de 0,8 mm, microgamuza de 0,8 mm, tejido de 0,4 mm, lona, mezclilla, purpurina y más.
La tela de corcho se vende en incrementos de 1/4 de yarda (9 pulgadas). Cortaremos una pieza continua si está disponible. Este material mide 25-27 ″ de ancho. Al ser un producto totalmente natural, el ancho puede variar.
Para mantener la calidad de esta tela, nuestra tela de corcho se enrolla, se sella en una bolsa de plástico y se empaqueta para protegerla durante el envío. Nunca doblaremos esta tela para evitar arrugas.
Se recomienda comenzar cada proyecto con una aguja nueva. Microtex tamaño 80/12 o Microtex tamaño 90/14 funcionan mejor; sin embargo, el tamaño universal 80/12 funciona igual de bien. Para la mayoría de los proyectos, recomendamos un margen de costura de 3/8”, una longitud de puntada de 2,5 mm para unir piezas y una longitud de puntada de 3 mm para pespuntes, a menos que se indique lo contrario. Si está cosiendo varias capas, es posible que deba reducir la presión o tensión del prensatelas de la máquina. Las máquinas de coser domésticas generalmente pueden coser hasta cuatro capas de corcho o dos capas de corcho y 2 capas de espuma a la vez. Cada máquina se comporta de manera diferente, así que pruebe cuál funciona mejor para su máquina. Puedes planchar corcho de calidad por ambos lados con un paño prensado.
