Cut by the Yard

This fabric is to be used for undergarments, a chemise/shift for a Renaissance costume. The weight and body of the fabric is just right. It's not linen, but it is going to work up beautifully. The timely delivery was even better! Thank you!

This was the basis for my wedding dress. In hind sight, I needed more than I originally ordered, but that was my own fault. To the other reviewers complaining that this was thin or see through: well, yes, this is gauze. It is not suitable as a single layer, and if you're going to use it for clothing, you need multiple layers or gathers in select places. It has a lovely drape, and washed up quite nicely. It didn't ravel nearly as much as I expected, so I'm very pleased with this purchase. That being said, if you don't really know which material is which, go to an in-person shopping location. This is not suitable for every project.

The color is just as I expected, and the fabric will be cool on hot days. The dark color will minimize the see-through aspect of such this lightweight fabric.I anticipated shrinkage - it's characteristic of gauze - so I washed the fabric before using it. According to before and after measurements, it shrank 15%; allow for that in your purchase.

I wanted to quilt with this fabric but, although it is cotton, it's a shear gauze and unsuitable for my purpose.

Very nice, heavier weight of gauze than I thought it would be. The color (on my computer) appeared to be more of a gray-blue, but the actual item was a baby blue.

I made a slip to go under thin fabric dresses. Worked very well. Good fabric for the purpose for which I bought it.

The gauze I bought was the exact color as described, chocolate brown, and the perfect color for my project! It's very soft and cuts easily with no raveling. It arrived promptly as well. Two thumbs up!

Thin but not sheer. Lightweight. Just what I wanted
