Sewing with cotton gauze fabric?
I am going to sew an outfit for my daughter. I have some white cotton gauze fabric and was wondering if I should wash it first before starting my project like you do with other cotton fabrics. Will this fabric shrink signifigantly? Also, does anyone know if the crinkles will come out and stay out after doing this. I would love it if they did but if they don’t thats fine too.
The crinkles in the gauze cloth will stay put. Just wash in hot water with a bit of detergent and tumble dry as you will the finished garment. It will shrink enough that you don’t want to make the garment then wash it.
I really hate puckered seams when I get dumb and don’t wash first.
