Kraft-Tex (stone colour)

This roll of Kraft-Tex is 1/4 of a metre. It has not been washed.

Kraft-Tex is a durable paper fabric that looks and feels like leather but works like fabric, able to be cut, sewn, and washed like a textile. It is strong enough for high-wear projects and can be used for crafts like bookmaking, sewing projects, and mixed-media art. It is a vegan, cellulose-based product with a small amount of synthetic latex, and it can be machine washed and dried to soften its texture. 

I use Kraft Tex as a base for my fabric covered journals and other fabric covered projects. I recently made a textile crown and think it works as a wonderful sturdy base! You could also use card paper, but Kraft-Tex is more flexible and durable in the long term. It is really enjoyable to work with! 

Just like paper, it can be easily embossed as well!

This sized piece could make at least one or two journal covers, for example, depending on the size.
