For this project, I recommend using woven (non-stretchy) fabric of a medium weight. My version features interfaced canvas and laminated cotton for the lining. If you do use quilting cotton for the main fabric, it's best to interface (or quilt) the fabric for more stability. You can use Pellon ShapeFlex 101, one-sided fusible such as Pellon 987F Fusible Fleece, or foam stabilizer if you are doing a quilted version.
