Weed control fabric (landscape cloth) combined with mulch is a popular method in landscaping - but you may want to give some consideration to the short-term vs. long-term impacts. The duration of weed control may be shorter than you'd imagine - as weed seeds and decaying organic matter accumulate above the cloth.
