Plant-Dyed Fabric Sampler | Plant-Dyed Textiles, Nuno Felting, Slow Stitch, Crafts, Quilting, Journaling, Sewing, Cards

Gift set of 5 naturally dyed upcycled fibers for slow sewing, visible repairs, fabric collage and many other fiber art projects. These upcycled fabrics were individually hand-dyed in my studio. I love dyeing sustainable and second-hand natural materials with vegetable dyes. This mauve, peach, pink, and purple color palette offers a variety of patterns in an assortment of silk and cotton with a vintage bamboo and wool yarn. These unique textiles are perfect for experimenting and letting your creativity run wild. They are perfect for collage, embroidery, doll making, visible repairs, quilting, slow stitching, fiber arts, flea markets, nuno felting and home decor projects. SUSTAINABLE MANUFACTURING | Recycled fabric bundles are a great way to incorporate sustainability into your textile craft projects. These textile bundles are also a great way to build your sustainable materials collection, as upcycled and plant-dyed fabrics have a lower carbon footprint than new materials. FABRIC | French This gift set includes 4 pieces of fabric and 1 bamboo/wool yarn. This is the set you will receive, presented in a 14cm x 20cm clear cellophane bag, certified compostable biofilm. •Mauve, pink and peach marbled sheer silk habotai fabric (cochineal/iron) | 17 cm x 12 cm • Peach silk fabric with purple cotton trim (cochineal/iron) | 16 cm x 12 cm • Light purple mottled cotton fabric (cochineal/iron) | 13 cm x 13 cm • Purple vintage cotton lace with bias binding on one edge on the back (cochineal/indigo) | 13 cm x 9 cm • Mauve and pink variegated bamboo/wool yarn (cochineal/iron) | 2 meters RECLAIMED MATERIALS | These hand-dyed fabrics come from reclaimed clothing and vintage fabrics that I have selected, washed, and then carefully unraveled so that almost the entire garment can be used. Deconstructing clothing takes time, but there are already many beautiful fabrics that can be used as a sustainable option for projects. DETAILS | Pieces with unusual shapes have been calculated based on their size, and there may be small imperfections and mottled colors. I have done my best to accurately represent the true shades of these fabrics, but each computer monitor will display colors differently. CARE | These fabrics have been washed/degreased, mordanted (fixed so that natural dyes adhere to the fibers), hand-dyed, rinsed, and ironed. Naturally dyed fabrics are best hand washed with pH-neutral detergent, line dried, ironed with a low iron, and stored away from direct sunlight. DELIVERY | I will refund any difference in shipping costs over €1.00 and can combine shipping costs for multiple purchases. I ship all my items in TUV certified bio-compostable cellophane bags and recyclable cardboard envelopes.
