I'm making my first double gauze project - as I cut out each piece I serged the edges to avoid fraying, just to be sure. I'm making the Meadow skirt from Twig and Tale. I'm planning on making an Ogden cami out of the same fabric.
Thanks Ruan😊 I love double gauze. I’ve made 3 indigos and several tops and they are all so comfortable to wear. The Wardrobe by Me Whisper blouse is lovely in it too. My 2 tips, always stay stitch and always just hover your steam iron over the fabric 😀
Thank you so much for your research and for sharing this with us. There were some great patterns. Seems like another purchase is coming on lol 😂 but who is watching 😂😊❤️
Wow that's brilliant. Definitely some in there that I wouldn't have thought of. I've got the Remy so that's deffo going to get made in double gauze. Thanks so much Ruan 🙏 💓 ☺
Wow Ruan what a fab vlog! Thanks so much for all your time and effort in researching double gauze, I've had some in my stash for ages and after watching your vlog will definitely be looking to make something from all your amazing suggestions, just a brilliant resource for us all, your a star! ⭐🌟🥰
Wow - what an amazing vlog on double gauze - I haven't sewn with it but some of these ideas will definitely make me rethink. I really enjoyed this vlog - as always!
Amazing and thank you for taking the time to research all of this - I didn't think double guaze was so versatile and just thought of it as pj material x
Hello Helen, that’s great to hear. The Winslow’s did pop into my head but wasn’t too sure. I’ve made a pair in a swishy viscose. Double gauze would be dreamy.
Thanks for a great overview, I’ve been downloading freebie patterns like a lunatic…who knew there were so many! Now for the double gauze fabric spending spree 😇😬😻 Love your videos 🥰😍
Wow! What a great review of different options for using double gauze! I have never sewn with double gauze, but now you have sparked my interest! Will definitely look at some of your pattern recommendations. Look forward to seeing what you might make.
Morning Ruan, wow great video. I think you gave us a lot to get started with. Going down the rabbit hole of double gauze. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday. Val❤️🇨🇦🇬🇧
Thank you so much, you’ve saved us all a ton of work, it really is appreciated. I can feel another Peppermint Paddington & a Sagebrush both in double gauze. Also eyeing up my spring dress pattern as I reckon it wants to be made in double gauze too.
Brilliant vlog. I love double gauze think it will be lovely for the summer in tops & dresses...but always wonder what to make and now I know...Great video...I'm now inspired some really lovely patterns here I now want to buy...thank you Ruan
I love double gauze! I used it when I first started sewing (before I knew to be scared of it haha!) and I find it less intimidating than jersey knits! I love the Kalle - I've made two dresses already. I think it will look fab in double gauze. I've made the Simplicity 8172 kimono and some self-drafted swimsuit coverups with double gauze. It's the perfect fabric for swim coverups because it dries fast!
Well done Ruan that was a brilliant vlog. I can’t believe there are so many gorgeous free patterns out there. Your choices were spot on and the pictures you put up of the double gauze look divine. Thanks for taking the time to do that and for putting a smile on my face along the way. “What you doing wi hat on” funny 😂😂 I thought the stevie dress from TATB would be another good choice too. Look forward to your ne t vlog 😍😍
Thank you for your time looking at double gauze and giving inspiration with these patterns, great video!👍👍I’m just working on my first double gauze project having seen your pjs last year. Using a elasticated waist pattern from my stash not used before, ( from a mag in the 80’s! ) all cut out and ready to stitch! The Ellie and Mac is a great suggestion, so many variations. I’ve got it in the project pile, pinned on jersey, but do have more double gauze in the stash🤔thanks again
Thanks Ruan for great suggestions. Like you I have had a piece of DG in my stash for ages and lacked the nerve to get on and use it. Will now get on with it.
Fantastic vlog, so my inspirational help. Poundfabrics have some inexpensive double gauze, that first time users might fancy trying. I’ve never used it before and have several of the patterns you have suggested, so happy sewing. Love the idea of PJ’s in this fabric too.
Fabulous video!!!!! Few bits there that are now on my huge list 😉 only made two bits in double gauze (stevie and the recital blouse) and love both. I think I’ll be getting more! Thanks for putting this together!!!
Well you have me all inspired to buy some double gauze and try my hand at it. I've been sewing for many many years but have never worked with double gauze. I will look for some big four patterns that are similar to the patterns that you were showing. Thanks for all the good information about double gauze
Thank you Ruan for the most fantastic informative video, you have done so much work and preparation, and it is really appreciated. As a beginner, this will help me so much. You should do some sewing workshops or an arena tour, you'd sell out in minutes ❤
Thanks for the vlog Ruan, I made the Itch to Stitch, Palermo Peasant blouse from the Sew Beautiful book in double gauze. It's a great top and comes with a dress version too.
Thank you so much for this brilliant video. I have saved it for future reference. The tips really encouraged me to get a little adventurous without the pitfalls. The pattern research was wonderful. Thanks again. BTW, I love your sense of humor.
Wow Ruan...what a fabulous selection of patterns for double gauze 💞👌. I've made one blouse from double gauze, but now want to make so many more, due to your fab inspirational vlog 🙏...Thanks so much for putting in the work for this...your a 🌟 😁🙌💖😘
Oh my what a lovely vlog. I love all the patterns which is very unusual for me. Other vlogs I watch they all seem to use the same pattern. Then multi make them. I like unique. Yours are lovely. Oh I have just found you and I am so glad. Now I will do some pattern looking. Thank you xx
Great video, thank you Ruan, very informative. I love Double Gauze. I have made a Wrapped over skirt with Double Gauze, with my first SHJ DG last summer. I am going to make Darling dress, from Megan Nilson, in my latest DG from SHJ for my daughter again. For my Sagebush top and love it.
Inspiring video! As a relatively beginner sewist with a very limited budget, I haven't sewn with DG yet. But I have a shirt-dress made with it and it feels SO good. It looks good too ;) Other patterns you haven't mentioned that I think would look and feel fantastic in DG are : the saguaro set, McCall's 7969, the Georgia top/dress, the harper tunic, the Cielo top/dress The clay shirt by mood fabrics Their Cladia minimal waste dress too Any simple crop top like the bow top (or something) Any baby doll style dress And any kimono/robe/kaftan style dress or vest
Oh Ruan thank you for this timely in-depth vlog. I’ve been lusting after double gauze for the last few weeks but have been a bit flummoxed as to what to make. Some fantastic suggestions here I am sooo gonna try. I just bought the Alice top/dress pattern from Tessuti and I think that would work well too, lovely and peasanty with lots of ease.
Made the square neck top last night ( whilst hubby was away!! He he) it’s lovely in viscose twill and takes very little fabric as you say! I lengthened it by an inch or so and graded out at bottom. Great instructions also!! Winner🏆
Thank you so much for this vlog. I went on the Hey Sew Sister website and ordered their beautiful double gauze. Brilliant service. Parcel arrived after just 24 hours. And the fabric is gorgeous. A really good company to deal with.
I have the animal print one, which I'm making the Friday pattern company Sage Brush top 😀 Thank you for taking the time to research and film this vlog.
The summers here in Northern California get really hot (110F), and double gauze is my favorite for loose, floaty dresses that don't stick to me. This fabric is also very forgiving, so sewing them is fast and easy. Great vlog!
I used double gauze to make a super soft myosotis dress,😊 and it turned out really well! The trillium dress comes together quickly, and is fantastic to showcase nice fabric.
Thank you Ruan. My SHJ fabric was the gorgeous royal blue colour way … and I have no idea what to make with it (except not pjs) 😊 The very helpful lady in The Stitching Room suggested I overlock all around the edge of fabrics that fray easily before I pre wash
Hi Ruan, I have made a Charlie Caftan in double gauze( SHJ, one you did your pjs in) and I love it. I have made the Olive dress in cotton lawn, it’s a beautiful dress but I found the triangular insert a bit challenging so I think it would be tough getting that right in double gauze. I also have made the peppermint loungewear in dg. They are so comfy. It’s a great fabric. I’m going to make Stevie in my dg from SHJ this month ( same colour way as yours), the fabric is delicious! Can’t wait for the summer!
So many ideas - thank you for doing the research. I made the SewHouse7 Remi Raglan in a two-tone linen. I love the design but be aware of the amount of ease in the pattern. I sized down and it was still huge on me. Wonderful instructions though and a very easy make. I haven’t tried double gauze yet - might have to do that!
That was really helpful.....I've always struggled to know what to do with double gauze but since watching your video I've made two things! PJ bottoms (fabulous!) and the Seychelles top (long sleeved) by Itch to Stitch. The Seychelles is designed to be made in a drapy material but it works beautifully in double gauze...I actually found it easier to sew up in double gauze that viscose. Has lovely shaping to looks great on.
Brilliant vlog Ruan, lovely selection of patterns for Double Gauze. Only made one top in dg and it was a disaster. I've been looking to have another go and you've inspired me. I like the sagebrush pattern but not into puffy sleeves. Cara fron sewsomad used a different sleeve on hers and it looks lovely. 👌 looking forward to see what you make with your dg.
Thank you for this vlog, I now know what double gauze is and what to do with it . Cant wait to give it a go, think I'm going to start with some pyjamas 🤗 xx
@@theyorkshiresewgirl not sure if I should tell you this but Fabric Godmother has just announced she has some double sided ( reversible)gingham double gauze! Holy moly
Very informative. You’ve confirmed my decision to make an Indigo top out of double gauze. The new additional hack makes it even more versatile. Have also ordered some star patterned double gauze to make a baby blanket. Has anyone else noticed how much the cost of double gauze can vary? You expect Japanese fabric to be expensive but even plain double gauze can be so expensive.
Meet you there dress and top by pattern emporium. I have made two tops out of it in double gauze in the past month and love them both. So comfortable and easy to wear. I love your videos! 💕
This has super made me rethink my no double gauze rule. I love them but can never think of something but this made me think of the marsha.B X abbiesews grace dress. It would gorgeous!
I'm making my first double gauze project - as I cut out each piece I serged the edges to avoid fraying, just to be sure. I'm making the Meadow skirt from Twig and Tale. I'm planning on making an Ogden cami out of the same fabric.
Great tip!

So glad it’s been helpful. Pjs are awesome in it but I’m definitely thinking a dress and top for this summer 😍
Brilliant. Thank you. I made my daughter Helen’s Closet Winslow culottes. They worked really well😍
Hello Helen, that’s great to hear. The Winslow’s did pop into my head but wasn’t too sure. I’ve made a pair in a swishy viscose. Double gauze would be dreamy.
Ooh lovely!

Oooh that sounds awesome 🤩. Love it when older patterns get used 👍🏼
Thanks Ruan for great suggestions. Like you I have had a piece of DG in my stash for ages and lacked the nerve to get on and use it. Will now get on with it.

Fantastic vlog, so my inspirational help. Poundfabrics have some inexpensive double gauze, that first time users might fancy trying. I’ve never used it before and have several of the patterns you have suggested, so happy sewing. Love the idea of PJ’s in this fabric too.
That’s such a good idea Diane! Always good when trying a new fabric 👍🏼
Thanks for all that research!! Great vid, I’ve never sewn with DG either…….I think I need to put that right this summer!
Yes you SO do 😜
Fabulous video!!!!! Few bits there that are now on my huge list 😉 only made two bits in double gauze (stevie and the recital blouse) and love both. I think I’ll be getting more! Thanks for putting this together!!!
It’s a good excuse to buy more don’t you think?! 🤪
Well you have me all inspired to buy some double gauze and try my hand at it. I've been sewing for many many years but have never worked with double gauze. I will look for some big four patterns that are similar to the patterns that you were showing. Thanks for all the good information about double gauze
Yay. I’m sure there will be lots of big four patterns that would work 😊👍🏼
Hi Ruan - fabulous ideas here for Double Gauze. Thanks for doing all of that research - amazing! 👏👏👏 Such beautiful patterns. Too many to choose from😻
Thank you! Glad you like them 😊
Thank you Ruan for the most fantastic informative video, you have done so much work and preparation, and it is really appreciated. As a beginner, this will help me so much. You should do some sewing workshops or an arena tour, you'd sell out in minutes ❤
🤣🤣. Thank too Maxine! Really appreciate your kind words 🥰
Thanks for the vlog Ruan, I made the Itch to Stitch, Palermo Peasant blouse from the Sew Beautiful book in double gauze. It's a great top and comes with a dress version too.
Ooh lovely. Don’t you just love it when you can make a dress and a top 👍🏼
Thank you so much for this brilliant video. I have saved it for future reference. The tips really encouraged me to get a little adventurous without the pitfalls. The pattern research was wonderful. Thanks again. BTW, I love your sense of humor.
Aww thank you Sue! Let’s be adventurous 🥳
I have 2 pieces of double gauze and have never sewn it so thanks for all the ideas
Great. Hope you love whatever you make out of it Sarah 😊
Great vlog. I am sure you have broadened a lot of our fabric knowledge. You certainly have mine.
Oh that’s great to hear. Thank you!
Wow Ruan...what a fabulous selection of patterns for double gauze 💞👌. I've made one blouse from double gauze, but now want to make so many more, due to your fab inspirational vlog 🙏...Thanks so much for putting in the work for this...your a 🌟 😁🙌💖😘

Oooh lovely Grace! I can’t wait to make up some more garments with my stash fabric ☺️
Fantastic video Ruan 🙂
Thank you 😊
Thanks Ruan for another great video. Incidentally, yesterday I ordered the chalk and notch Fringe dress and some double gauze online......woo hoo.
Yay Karen! That will look gorgeous 😍
Inspiring video!
As a relatively beginner sewist with a very limited budget, I haven't sewn with DG yet. But I have a shirt-dress made with it and it feels SO good. It looks good too ;)
Other patterns you haven't mentioned that I think would look and feel fantastic in DG are :
the saguaro set,
McCall's 7969,
the Georgia top/dress,
the harper tunic,
the Cielo top/dress
The clay shirt by mood fabrics
Their Cladia minimal waste dress too
Any simple crop top like the bow top (or something)
Any baby doll style dress
And any kimono/robe/kaftan style dress or vest
You are adorable😀 First time watching you and I have subscribed as I want to sew with gauze. Your pattern choses are right up my alley. Thank you.
Aww thank you Karen!! ☺️
Oh Ruan thank you for this timely in-depth vlog. I’ve been lusting after double gauze for the last few weeks but have been a bit flummoxed as to what to make. Some fantastic suggestions here I am sooo gonna try. I just bought the Alice top/dress pattern from Tessuti and I think that would work well too, lovely and peasanty with lots of ease.
Yea absolutely Lisa! I’m a massive fan of Tessuti patterns 😍
Such great information! I recently made an Eadie jumpsuit from Style Arc, in double gauze. So comfortable.
Oooh that sounds lush Michelle!
Hi Ruan. So much information. Loved it. Lots to think about and so much choice. This has helped a lot. Thank you 😊❤. Nxx
Glad it was helpful!
Made the square neck top last night ( whilst hubby was away!! He he) it’s lovely in viscose twill and takes very little fabric as you say! I lengthened it by an inch or so and graded out at bottom. Great instructions also!! Winner🏆
Aww that’s fab to know you liked the square neck top 🥳
Enjoy your ideas ❤
Thank you! 😊
Thank you so much for this vlog.
I went on the Hey Sew Sister website and ordered their beautiful double gauze. Brilliant service. Parcel arrived after just 24 hours. And the fabric is gorgeous. A really good company to deal with.
Wow! I’ve only ever heard good things about them 👍🏼
thanks for sharing!
I have the animal print one, which I'm making the Friday pattern company Sage Brush top 😀
Thank you for taking the time to research and film this vlog.
Ooh bet that will be lush 😍
The summers here in Northern California get really hot (110F), and double gauze is my favorite for loose, floaty dresses that don't stick to me. This fabric is also very forgiving, so sewing them is fast and easy. Great vlog!
Yes I totally agree Janet!! Such a gorgeous fabric for all seasons 😍
I used double gauze to make a super soft myosotis dress,😊 and it turned out really well! The trillium dress comes together quickly, and is fantastic to showcase nice fabric.
Yes I absolutely love the myosotis dress is DG. Such a dreamy combination 🥰
Thank you Ruan. My SHJ fabric was the gorgeous royal blue colour way … and I have no idea what to make with it (except not pjs) 😊
The very helpful lady in The Stitching Room suggested I overlock all around the edge of fabrics that fray easily before I pre wash
Yes such a good idea to overlock…I’m always full of good intentions but rarely see it through 🤪
Hi Ruan than you for an amazing video love to see what you do with your material Dawn
Thank you so much Dawn 😊
Hi Ruan, I have made a Charlie Caftan in double gauze( SHJ, one you did your pjs in) and I love it. I have made the Olive dress in cotton lawn, it’s a beautiful dress but I found the triangular insert a bit challenging so I think it would be tough getting that right in double gauze. I also have made the peppermint loungewear in dg. They are so comfy. It’s a great fabric. I’m going to make Stevie in my dg from SHJ this month ( same colour way as yours), the fabric is delicious! Can’t wait for the summer!
Oh wow! You are the double gauze queen 👸🏼 Mary 🥳🥳🥳
Excellent video well done
Thank you Tracy 😊
So many ideas - thank you for doing the research. I made the SewHouse7 Remi Raglan in a two-tone linen. I love the design but be aware of the amount of ease in the pattern. I sized down and it was still huge on me. Wonderful instructions though and a very easy make. I haven’t tried double gauze yet - might have to do that!
Oooh love the idea of a two tone one Loriann! Bet that’s gorgeous 😍
That was really helpful.....I've always struggled to know what to do with double gauze but since watching your video I've made two things! PJ bottoms (fabulous!) and the Seychelles top (long sleeved) by Itch to Stitch. The Seychelles is designed to be made in a drapy material but it works beautifully in double gauze...I actually found it easier to sew up in double gauze that viscose. Has lovely shaping to looks great on.
Yay! We need to set up a double gauze pj appreciation society 🥳🥳🥳
Brilliant vlog Ruan, lovely selection of patterns for Double Gauze. Only made one top in dg and it was a disaster. I've been looking to have another go and you've inspired me. I like the sagebrush pattern but not into puffy sleeves. Cara fron sewsomad used a different sleeve on hers and it looks lovely. 👌 looking forward to see what you make with your dg.
Oooh go for it Linda. We can do it 💪🏼
Thank you for this vlog, I now know what double gauze is and what to do with it . Cant wait to give it a go, think I'm going to start with some pyjamas 🤗 xx
Oooh PJs are the best on DG Susan 🥳
Thanks for doing this….really enjoyed
You’re welcome ☺️
