Description
Kiwi green is a bright, yellow-leaning green — on this weave it never reads flat, because paler and darker yarns run through each other. That mottling is why this shade stays alive across large areas rather than turning hard.
It is an upholstery cloth in 100 % polyester, weighing 350 g/m² at 140 cm wide. Its Martindale rating exceeds 100.000 rubs, so it is built for domestic seating. Washing at 30 degrees is allowed; pressing, bleaching, tumble drying are ruled out by its care symbols. For sewing you need a heavier needle plus patience at corners — that weight works against you.
What Upholstery Fabric Rom Kiwi Green Mottled is suitable for
- Seat cushions and bench pads, because this cloth resists rubbing.
- Recovering chairs, because 350 g/m² brings enough substance.
- Bean bags, because this weave holds its shape.
- Cushion covers, because mottling reads calm and homely.

Frequently asked questions
What does that Martindale figure mean?
It states how many rubs your fabric survives in a laboratory test. Beyond 100.000 counts as very hard-wearing, easily enough for domestic seating — including chairs used every day.
Which needle do I need?
A heavy universal needle or a denim needle, plus a longer stitch. Sew slowly, above all across several layers. A walking foot helps, or that weight feeds unevenly.
Can I wash it?
At 30 degrees yes, but consider its size: a complete chair cover rarely fits a machine. For zipped cushion covers this is handy instead. Pressing and tumble drying are out.
Does it fray?
At a cut edge it does, like any weave. Finish those edges with zigzag or overlock before sewing — in upholstery work every movement pulls at open yarns.
