Warm, Plush Fabrics Built for Blankets

Fleece and Sherpa for Maximum Warmth

Fleece and sherpa are the most popular choices for blanket making, offering a soft, lofty pile that traps heat without adding bulk. Both fabrics are easy to cut and require no hemming, making them ideal for quick DIY projects and small studio production runs. If you love cozy, at-home textures, our Loungewear Fabric range shares many of the same plush materials suited for warm-weather wrapping. For those who want an extra layer of insulation, pairing sherpa with a Bonded Fabric backing creates a blanket with exceptional body and durability.

Brushed Knits and Flannel for Everyday Comfort

Brushed knits and flannel deliver a softer, more drapey hand feel that works beautifully in lightweight throw blankets and baby wraps. These fabrics typically sit in the 200–300gsm range, striking the right balance between warmth and breathability for year-round use. Our Brushed Fabric collection covers a wide selection of weights and fiber blends, including cotton-poly options that wash exceptionally well. Shoppers looking for complementary home textile projects will also find great pairings in our Cushion Fabric category.

Anti-Pilling Performance for Long-Lasting Blankets

One of the most important qualities in any blanket fabric is resistance to pilling, especially for pieces that will be washed frequently or used daily. High-quality fleece and brushed polyester in our range are engineered to maintain their surface texture through repeated laundering. Explore our dedicated Anti Pilling Fabric selection to find options specifically tested for longevity and softness retention. For makers who prioritize hygiene — particularly when crafting blankets for children or pets — our Anti Microbial Fabric options offer an added layer of protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

What weight of fabric is best for making a blanket?
For most blanket applications, a fabric weight between 200gsm and 400gsm is ideal. Lighter weights around 200–250gsm suit summer throws and baby blankets, while heavier options at 300–400gsm are better for winter bedding or outdoor use. Fleece and sherpa at the higher end of this range provide the best warmth-to-weight ratio for cold-weather projects.
Is fleece or sherpa better for a DIY blanket?
Both are excellent choices, but they serve slightly different needs. Fleece is lightweight, easy to sew, and doesn't fray, making it the most beginner-friendly option. Sherpa has a thicker, wool-like pile on one side that adds extra warmth and a premium feel, making it popular for reversible blankets and gift projects. Many makers use both together as a two-sided blanket for the best of both worlds.
How much fabric do I need to make a throw blanket?
A standard adult throw blanket typically measures around 50 x 60 inches, so you'll need approximately 1.5 to 2 yards of fabric depending on the width of the bolt and whether you're making a single or double-sided design. For a larger bed blanket, plan for 3 to 4 yards. Always add a few extra inches to account for any trimming or finishing.
Do I need to hem blanket fabric like fleece or sherpa?
One of the great advantages of fleece and sherpa is that they do not fray, so raw edges are perfectly acceptable for a clean, casual finish. However, you can add a simple folded hem, blanket stitch, or binding for a more polished look. Flannel and brushed knits may benefit from a small hem or serged edge to prevent fraying over time.
Can blanket fabric be used for other home projects?
Absolutely — the same plush fabrics used for blankets work wonderfully across a range of home and craft projects. Fleece and sherpa are popular for pet beds, pillow covers, and wearable wraps. If you're exploring related projects, our craft fabric and cushion fabric collections offer complementary materials that pair well with blanket-weight textiles.
