It’s Summer — Time For Embrace® Double Gauze Cotton!

It’s Summer — Time For Embrace® Double Gauze Cotton!



Embrace® double gauze cotton from Shannon Fabrics is ideal for summer sewing projects.

With summer comes warmer temperatures and longer days, so it’s the ideal time of the year for lighter, more breathable fabrics. 

Enter Embrace® double gauze cotton — it’s lightweight, easy breezy and comfy cozy, and great for summer sewing.

Embrace® double gauze cotton is perfect for summer-friendly sewing projects like accessories (scarves and shawls), baby products (swaddle blankets and bibs), apparel (kimonos, tops, tunics, dresses), sleepwear (nightgowns, robes, pajama pants), home decor (lightweight throw blankets, window treatments, quilts), table linens (napkins, table cloths), and more.



What is Embrace® Double Gauze?

Embrace® is made from two layers of gauze, an inherently light fabric with an open weave, that are basted together every inch. This forms a subtle grid over the fabric and allows the layers to act as one. Embrace® is prewashed for extra softness from first touch, and its breathable and natural construction becomes even softer with every wash.

This irresistible fabric is offered in yardage (in solids, prints and even metallics) and there are also convenient kits for making self-binding baby blankets, strip quilts, swaddle blankets and loveys. Many of the kits also contain our always-popular Cuddle® minky.

Shop Resources

Shops can participate in the Shannon Fabrics finished kit program, where they can purchase a finished sample for display if they buy a certain number of the same kit. Other shop support includes trunk shows with samples that feature Embrace®, classes on how to sew with Embrace®, and more.
