Embrace® double gauze is the perfect substrate for lightweight breezy dresses. Meg at BurdaStyle sewed this pretty tiered dress and wrote a customized sewing tutorial all about her creative process.

Hi Everyone,

I’m Lorine Mason from It’s Sew Lorine  I recently had the pleasure to work with Shannon Fabrics wonderful Embrace® double gauze fabric. I thought it would be perfect for a summer nightgown for a dear friend, and I think it turned out beautifully.

Don’t you just love wrapping those little ones up in a cozy hooded towel after a bath or at the beach or pool? Well, we’ve got a new free pattern for a minky fabric hooded towel so you can make one yourself! The towel is made with Cuddle® fabric and terry cloth so it’s so soft and absorbent. And, as an added bonus, the pattern includes a burp cloth – great for the littlest ones.

My name is Denise and I love designing sewing patterns! Especially for little girls’ dresses. You can find me at DIY-Crush, an online marketplace for sewing and craft patterns, and Whimsy Couture Sewing patterns, a website especially for baby and kids sewing patterns. I’m so excited to be here again! I want to share a sweet dress I just finished sewing in Embrace double gauze, made from my own girls’ dress pattern. I’ll also be sharing some helpful tips for sewing with Embrace double gauze.
