About Approved Textiles
At Approved Textiles, we make visible mending easy, beautiful, and accessible—whether you sew all the time or haven’t picked up a needle since grade school. Our water-soluble mending transfers are designed to extend the life of clothing while inviting creativity, slowness, and care. Inspired by repair traditions from around the world—like sashiko, kantha, and darning—each pattern is printed on a dissolvable wood-pulp stabilizer (no microplastics!) and packaged in compostable paper. Just press on, stitch through, and rinse away. We’re based on historic Fabric Row in Philadelphia and proud to be a queer- and trans-owned business rooted in sustainability, handwork, and storytelling. Our transfers are a natural fit for sewing shops, where customers are looking to personalize garments, practice hand stitching, or dive deeper into slow fashion. For lifestyle and gift boutiques, they’re easy to display, plastic-free, and make beautiful gifts—whether for a seasoned maker or someone just starting their mending journey. Low minimums, clear instructions, and artful packaging make them ready for retail shelves, workshops, and windows. We believe in repair as a daily act of care—and we’d love to be part of your shop.

Brilliant thoughtful product that has been a hit with my clients. I ordered a range of sashiko stitching templates that I will sell in my store and use and promote when teaching mending workshops. The product arrived promptly and was packaged really well so everything was in perfect condition. I had a personalized thank-you note and an opportunity to reach out directly to the seller with any questions. I look forward to ordering more from this supplier.

These transfers are so thoughtfully designed and packaged! You can really tell how much love and care the owner puts into their work. I'm thrilled to offer these in my shop and can't wait to see folks walking around town sporting these designs!
