Premium Double Gauze

The charm of this fabric is a new for you!

A double gauze fabric filled with richness and a nice soft texture that fits your body line is here! A woven cotton and Rexcell blend premium double gauze will add a special feel to your everyday handmade clothing.
“Double gauze is a popular fabric among hand craft enthusiasts. I often heard them saying, ‘It clings to other garments.’ or ‘It’s leathery and spreads out.’ By weaving in the Rexcell, it created smoothness and a great fit to your body. It is natural yet has a good fit. When sewing a skirt or a dress, it creates a soft and beautiful silhouette without having the hem spreading out widely.” (By Sakurai, designer)

“The image behind this design is a leisurely and warm atmosphere inside the house on a cold winter day. The layer of deep colors suited for fall and winter will go well with a knit or a coat. It expresses a happy moment, feeling warm wrapped in multiple layers of blanket.” (by Sakurai)

The motifs came from “The Bakery in the Acorn Village” (Gakken Publishing). The Acorn Village’s bakery is always busy with people lined up outside, but mom & dad owners had one small worry…. This is a warm story of a family of busy working parents with innocent kids. The author of the book was particular about the color to be used, specifically a main color of saxe blue. She struggled but was able to come up with a color that is suitable all around, whether it’s for a boy, girl or for a mom.
