Nerida's Fabric Selections: Balancing Sustainability, Wearability Sewing Ease, and Creative Potential.
As the Creative Director of Nerida Hansen Fabrics, selecting the right fabrics for my customers is paramount. Not only do I want to take responsibility for the environmental and social impact of my fabric choices, I want to be sure my customers also have a product that is easy to sew and very comfortable to wear.
Quality serves as the cornerstone of my business. The quality of fabric I source is paramount, so customers receive fabric and printing that is durable and stands the test of time. Quality starts with the fabric sourcing and selection but extends to many other aspects of my business including manufacturing, customer service, innovation and trends and ethical business practices.
With Quality laying the foundations, the primary considerations that guide my fabric choices are:
- Sustainability
- Wearability
- Design Versatility
- Ease of Sewing
Sustainability
Environmentally friendly, sustainable choices are critical. Selecting fabrics with eco-friendly certifications, such as organic, recycled, or low-impact materials is incredibly important for compelling reasons including reducing environmental impact, conserving natural resources, protecting ecosystems, supporting ethical labour practices and promoting a circular economy.
Wearability
Wearability includes both visual appeal and comfort. Different fabrics have unique textures, colours, and patterns that can evoke specific moods or styles, so I select my choices based on the styles of garments my brand is known for. I also want to ensure that my fabrics are safe, comfortable, and enjoyable to wear.
Versatility
Aligning our beautiful prints with your own personal style, preferences and varied creative projects is also important, so I endeavour to offer a well-curated and diverse selection of fabric types. Our offering will evolve over time, and feedback about what fabric substrates are important to my customers is important to me.
Ease of Sewing
Finally, my fabric choices should also consider the ease of sewing or crafting. Sewing should be a joy, not a chore. Fabrics that are easy to work with can reduce production time and minimize errors, contributing to the overall quality of your products and customer satisfaction.
That's why we place a strong emphasis on fabrics that are easy to work with, regardless of your sewing experience.
From fabrics that don't fray excessively to those that hold stitches beautifully, our selection ensures that your sewing projects are enjoyable and stress-free. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting your sewing journey, our fabrics are designed to simplify your creative process.
