Double gauze is effectively two layers of gauze woven together at intervals, so it retains its light, airy qualities but the additional layer prevents it from being sheer. This makes it lovely to wear in hot climates but it's also soft and cosy for cooler climates. I've used it a few times for dressmaking and have never felt the need to add extra lining, even lighter colours still remain opaque. I don't use interfacing for collar or facing areas either when I'm sewing with double gauze as the extra layer gives it a bit more stability. I'm a big fan for all kinds of different reasons! xJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06618367450900385828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4512115797894439080.post-75330949935856814952013-12-09T13:46:57.685+00:002013-12-09T13:46:57.685+00:00Hi Jane, lovely Christmas list!
I have a question...Hi Jane, lovely Christmas list!<br /><br />I have a question about double gauze if you don't mind. When I first read about this I thought the point must be that you don't have to line it. Yet since then I've read more posts about it and it did need lining. So my question is, apart from being nice quality and having lovely Japanese prints on it, what is the purpose of doubling the gauze?<br /><br />Thanks for all the inspiring posts. Your blog is one of the first sewing blogs I came across and remains a favourite.<br /><br />Cheers, Sarahkushamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17348980220982246051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4512115797894439080.post-88108043229129577622013-12-09T13:17:41.901+00:002013-12-09T13:17:41.901+00:00I love the Merchant and Mills goodies.
