A fiber comprising a propylene polymer composition is disclosed. The composition comprises a resin blend of from about 75 to about 95 weight percent of a Ziegler-Natta or metallocene catalyzed isotactic polypropylene homopolymer, and from about 95 to about 75 weight percent of a metallocene catalyzed polypropylene copolymer. In this blend the copolymer component includes a comonomer in an amount from about 0.05 to about 25 weight percent, based on the copolymer. Non-woven fabrics prepared by thermally bonding the inventive fibers show improved tensile strengths, particularly machine direction, at comparable basis weights that are at least about 5 percent higher than those of fabrics prepared using identical preparation techniques but from the isotactic polypropylene homopolymer alone.
