Descriptions of Canvas Fabric and Duck Fabric:

Canvas Fabrics are a heavier and stiffer plain, evenly woven fabric and have traditionally been used for sails and often referred to as sailcloth, tents, artwork painting, needlework, many military uses and other industrial uses where heavy-duty fabric is required. Originally made of cotton, linen, flax and hemp, with today's canvas fabrics being are made from a variety of blends many of which contain synthetic fibers. Also of interest is Hair Canvas which is made of wool as well as goat, cow and horse hair as well as mixtures of these hair types that are woven so as to give the fabric a springiness. In its beginnings hair canvas was made by the poor as they could not afford good fabrics. Today it is hygienically cleaned and treated and woven into fabrics used for clothing interfacing and interlinings and typically only available by the yard in narrow widths.

Duck Fabrics are also of the basic plain weave as canvas and while being lighter in weight are still some of the most durable fabrics available. Duck Fabric is also used for the same purposes as described for canvas fabrics as well as being made from the same types of fibers. Instead of the traditional unbleached look, today's duck fabrics offer a wide variety of solid color choices and weights.
