Environmentally friendly and high quality

The special thing about the Nähfrosch sewing kits is that we use materials that are as environmentally friendly and sustainable as possible. That's why you'll only find carefully selected, high-quality materials in our sewing kits that you'll enjoy for a long time. The fabrics are certified, the sewing thread is organic. You can find the exact details about the materials in this sewing kit below!

We think the processes through to the end: we also care about the environment when it comes to packaging. You receive a recyclable shipping box that is already made of 70% recycled material. We pay attention to small package sizes so that transport is as resource-efficient as possible. Instead of wrapping your fabric in tissue paper or even plastic, we wrap it in a layer of 100% recycled, environmentally friendly wrapping paper. We do not use stickers as these can impair recyclability. Our environmentally friendly parcel tape is made from uncoated kraft paper and the adhesive is made from natural rubber. This means it can be recycled with the shipping box.

The sewing kit contents in detail

• linen according to Öko-Tex Standard 100

Of course, only high-quality linen, certified according to Oeko-Tex Standard 100, was considered for our sewing kit. You will love this high-quality linen fabric! Linen is made from fibers from the flax plant. The tear-resistant fabric is ideal for light and robust clothing. Linen is an ideal fabric for sewing dresses, skirts, trousers, suits or light blazers. Linen is particularly popular in summer because the material is breathable and can absorb and release air humidity, creating a cooling effect! Linen is very prone to creasing, but this is also what creates the desired "linen look".

• Fleece line G405 according to Oeko-Tex Standard 100

This fabric interlining for ironing onto light to medium-weight woven fabrics is dimensionally stable and has a soft, pleasant feel. It is suitable for stabilising small parts on blouses and shirts, for example collars, pockets or flaps. The interlining, like all interlinings from Vlieseline, is always Cut lengthwise, following the grain of the fabric. Then place the interfacing with the coated side down on the wrong side of the fabric and cover with a slightly damp cloth. Iron with a normal iron (2-3 points) for about 12 seconds. Press the iron on gradually, do not push it. Allow it to cool down completely, about 30 minutes or longer, so that the adhesion can stabilize.

• Organic sewing thread

Conscious sewing also includes the sewing thread! The 100% organic sewing thread contributes to protecting our environment. All production processes of the Scanfil Organic Cotton cotton yarn follow the GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) guidelines. No toxic chemicals are used in the cultivation of the organic cotton. Natural insecticides protect plants, the environment and ultimately people. The spools are made of environmentally friendly wood. The sewing thread is durable and has excellent sewing properties.

• Sustainable olive wood button

Dark, delicate stripes run evenly through the wood of the olive tree and ensure individual grain in the buttons. Olive wood is particularly hard and dense, which makes it a durable and age-resistant raw material. The wood of the olive tree is particularly environmentally friendly and sustainable, as it is a natural, renewable resource that is compostable at the end of a product's life cycle. The slow-growing olive trees are only cut down when they no longer produce olives and olive oil. The flat real wood buttons are made in Europe, have a visible individual grain and a raised edge.

• Soft hat elasticHigh-quality, very soft hat elastic from Veno with a width of 2 mm. Universally applicable, for example as a loop for buttons.
