Question:

what is the difference between landscape fabric and geotextile fabric?

I would like to make the beach bigger along the lake in our backyard. I am hoping to do it myself for my husband for father's day. I need suggestions on the best way to do this as a one women team.

Answer:

"Quilting fabric" is typically 100% cotton. Quilters prefer to use cotton over other fabrics. Sewing fabric can be any type of fabric ie: cotton, flannel, polyester, knit and others. Using "quilting fabric" is fine for a skirt as cotton is a good choice. I've sewn quite a few of my daughters clothes with it and it wears really well. The variety of patterns and colors is usually fantastic.
Geotextile Landscape Fabric
Landscape fabric is for weed control and geotextile fabric is used for retaining walls to tie them into the hill better and it is often used under paver patios and driveways to make them more stable.
