GBSB Ep6 Inspiration: Fabrics for Little Makes
From tutus and cuddly creatures to superhero outfits, discover our favourite fabrics and sewing ideas inspired by Kids Week on The Great British Sewing Bee.
Light, airy cotton with a summery feel. This 100% cotton double gauze has that softly crinkled texture everyone reaches for when the weather warms up. The coral print sits on a gentle cream base, giving it a sun-washed look, somewhere between seaside ice cream and a slightly abstract tropical sketch. It’s relaxed, easy-going, and doesn’t take itself too seriously.
At 130gsm, it’s lightweight but not flimsy, with that signature double gauze loft that makes it breathable and comfortable to wear all day. It drapes softly without clinging and works well for loose, casual pieces. Ideal for warm-weather sewing where comfort is key but you still want something that looks considered rather than thrown together.
