Leni connects us with textile craft and with the soil, growing natural dye plants in their garden to share.

Leni a textile artist working with natural dye and quilting. They began delving into these crafts as a way to find connection and belonging, as their family has a strong history in textile arts. Their process begins by searching for pre-loved natural fibre fabrics. Their garden provides colour in through the flowers they grow, and food scraps such as onion skins. After new colourful life is given to the second-hand fabrics through various natural dye processes, Leni stitches them into quilts by hand. Alongside sustainable, patient practice, community, transparency and accessibility live at the core of their teaching.
