I'm thinking about making the rectangular jelly roll rug and using only one fabric. I found a 60" wide, medium weight cotton canvas on line that I really like.
Is there any reason why cotton duck or cotton canvas would be inappropriate?

I know from videos I've watched that sometimes the rugs don't lay flat, even the soft cotton ones if not handled properly-not sure how the canvas would work since its less flexible. (Lots of hints on line about how to make your rug lay flat-maybe the rectangle ulnar ones don't have as much of a problem with that.) Haven't started yet-I'm nervous! Not a cheap project since I don't want to cut and tape all my own batting strips.
