"Klumhouse has the greatest wax canvas and customer service. The colors are perfect and even and the shipping is always within 2-3 days. The packaging is consistently done with care. Great customer service, always reliable, and trustworthy. I highly recommend all the wax canvas they sell."

"This waxed canvas is super easy to sew with just a standard sewing machine. For seam lines, it folds better than any fabric I know of. And best of all, if I make a mistake and have to rip out a seam, the seam ripper just glides through it without tearing the canvas."

"Very pleasantly surprised by the feel, softness, non greasy material/ love the weight. Sews really well even through thick layers. Have not noticed yet any buildup in feed dogs. I love the color choices."

"Really high quality waxed canvas, smooth edges with no folds or crinkling. It was shipped rolled with care and the color is well matched to the image which is helpful! Can't wait to sew with it!"

Waxed Canvas 101

Waxed canvas is a densely-woven cotton fabric that has been saturated with wax, giving it an extra layer of protection against the elements. This heritage material has been long-loved for its durability, natural water-resistance, and rugged character. Waxed canvas shows marks and creases that blend into a lovely weathered patina over time, similar to leather.

Spruce waxed canvas

I’m generally happy with my Klum House orders.
I just received some spruce waxed canvas that looks black. Totally black. The only green you see is in the threads on the sides.
Very, very disappointed. Cannot return since it is cut fabric.

Hi Helen,

Sorry that the color wasn't what you expected. We try to take accurate photos and post them on our site. The Spruce fabric is actually a very dark green, and it does look black under lower light. Try looking at it outside and even crinkle the fabric a little bit. You should see more green. Waxed canvas is darker when it's new because the wax saturates the fabric. It lightens up over time as the wax and oils wear in.

Great waxed canvas that is easy to sew. Perfect weight for bags and the colors are vibrant.

Love sewing bags with waxed canvas

I love to make bags of all types and waxed canvas is my favorite choice. It is easy to manipulate but strong enough to give bags that feeling that you're holding a high quality bag. It even somewhat resembles a lightweight leather once incorporated into a bag.

Sturdy and beautiful waxed canvas

I am very happy with how my big travel tote worked out! The field tan waxed canvas fabric looks and performs wonderfully for both the bottom section of the bag as well as the matching crossbody strap. It was easy to sew with this wax canvas, only finger-pressing as needed. The color matching with the other bag fabrics was easy.

Klumhouse waxed canvas

This is my third purchase of the Spring Green Waxed Canvas fabric from KlumHouse. I really love to sew bags with this fabric. It’s the perfect weight for my bag making, easy to sew up, and with very nice results. I’d definitely recommend this canvas for any sewist interested in bag making.

Love Klum House's Waxed Canvas

This waxed canvas is super easy to sew with just a standard sewing machine. For seam lines, it folds better than any fabric I know of. And best of all, if I make a mistake and have to rip out a seam, the seam ripper just glides through it without tearing the canvas. I wish they had prints too instead of just solids.

Wonderful!

Wonderful! Buttery to sew through. Great color. Made a great sling pack with it. Thanks!

Spruce with Brush Brown Waxed Canvas

Brush Brown pockets brightened up the Spruce exterior on this lined and zippered Portsmith. And the Chesnut leather and brass hardware tied it all together.

I added a miniature Fremont in Spruce to make it a gift set.

Great material for making elegant bag straps.

Wonderful color makes this mustard waxed canvas fabric an outstanding material for the Sandhill sling style bag. The fabric has a great feel to it, nice and pliable, yet sturdy. I’ve been using my bag exclusively ever since I made it about a year ago. I also really like to sew the straps out of this waxed canvas, they look so elegant, much better than using cotton webbing.

Great waxed canvas fabric

I very much like this Cobalt waxed canvas. It’s a repeat purchase. All of the bags I’ve made with this canvas have turned out beautifully. I also like the feel of the waxed canvas, pliable yet sturdy. I always receive great comments on the waxed canvas bags I make with this material.

Lovely from Packaging to Project

This was my first purchase and I was so pleased! The package was lovely and quick. I was able to work easily with the waxed canvas using my regular machine. The matching thread and ability to also purchase new needles for leather made it simple to get started right away. I'll be buying again!

Amazing!

I really liked this one! The color is a true charcoal but can be confused for a dark blue too. Very easy to work with . Only wish it was slightly thicker .

Nice surprise!

I was a little hesitant to purchase this color but glad I did! Loved the color! Wish it was slightly thicker as printed fabric can be seen on the inside .

Some Better than Others

I have purchased several of the colors and I love the ones that have a bit of weight to them -- hunter green, black, navy etc--- as oppose to those that are thinner and almost see thru -- brushed brown, berry, yellow etc --- Due to the difference in weight I have stopped using waxed canvas all together but happy for those who use and love it. Its really easy to sew with and I love the overall look Klum House is able to achieve but I prefer a slightly weightier finished product.

Waxed canvas is the best for bag making! I’ve made many bags with Klumhouse’s waxed canvas and all their colors are great!

Sophisticated looking bag making material

Great looking sturdy canvas. It was fun to work with and the bag looks sophisticated in this material. The bag exterior doesn’t require interfacing, and no ironing either; the seams were simply finger pressed. For my bag making, I get all of my waxed canvas material from Klumhouse.
