The meaning of those two words is extremely close. Fabric usually means a textile, which is to say, a material woven out of threads, however it is sometimes used metaphorically in a way that textile would not be used; "the very fabric of our friendship was at risk" would be a possible usage, whereas one would never say "the very textile of our friendship was at risk" .

Yes, textile and fabric are similar in meaning but used in slightly different contexts. Textile typically refers to any material that can be woven or knitted, including fabrics made from natural or synthetic fibers. Fabric, on the other hand, specifically refers to the finished product that is used in clothing or home goods.
