Inspiration to this design I have found from museum collections for block printed designs. The block-impression shows a pattern for a printed textile of floral trails on dark ground. Additional colouring was done by hand. The same floral trail was used for several backgrounds.  


If you dear to wear one of these, just let me know and I will create the article.


The Chosen Caracter for this designs is Lucy Terry Prince, Born in 1733. She was an American settler and poet. She composed a ballad poem, "Bars Fight", about a 1746 incident. It was preserved orally until being published in 1855. It is considered the oldest known work of literature by an African American.

Sustainable Development

The importance of global sustainability awakens with Agenda 2030 goals in mind. 

Agenda 2023 refers to a set of initiatives and goals aimed at addressing global challenges and promoting sustainable development. While there is no single, universally recognized “Agenda 2023,” it often relates to the ongoing efforts stemming from the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) established in 2015 under the broader framework of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. This agenda emphasizes the need for collaborative action among nations to tackle issues such as poverty, inequality, climate change, and environmental degradation.

Grandma's Laundry Tricks:
  • Do not Brush, Rub or Scrub the printed fabrics too hard to avoid damage to print quality.
  • Wash with similar colours to avoid staining or tint.
  • Please do not overuse the centrifuge, it only wrinkles the fabric.
  • Please do not overuse the dryer or use extrem heat, this only tears the fibres apart.
  • A dehumidifier is a great invention to dry the fabrics and clothes.
  • Dry the fabrics outdoors, if possible, but not under direct sunlight.
  • Environmentally awareness and the durability of clothing go hand in hand.
  • Do You really need to use the fabric softener or is white vinegar good enough?
