vegie textiles

vegie textiles by sabine marcelis from netherlands

designer's own words:

VEGIE TEXTILES is the result of a series of experiments carried out in creating all natural dyes and ink using fruit and vegetables. Organic cotton was dyed using fruit and vegetable juices and later printed with the pattern of the fruit or vegetable used, again using the natural dye but in a more concentrate state and mixed with a gel.

The textiles demonstrate the beauty and potential of nature and the fact that we dont need to use invasive and toxic materials to dye and decorate textiles with.
