Nerida Hansen

Nerida Hansen, a dynamic force in the world of textiles and sewing patterns, is known for her boundless energy and extraordinary creativity. As an Australian entrepreneur, she has built a textile and sewing pattern empire with "Nerida Hansen Fabrics." She combines her artistic flair with a passion for bright colours, resulting in visually harmonious designs.
Nerida has not only pushed boundaries in textile design but has also excelled in developing accessible commercial sewing patterns for creative minds worldwide. Her meticulously designed clothing patterns enable people of all skill levels to bring her beautiful fabrics to life. This demonstrates her dedication to creating a vision that goes beyond just fabrics—a vision that is appealing, sustainable, and embraced globally.

Verhees Textiles and Nerida Hansen place a strong emphasis on sustainability. It was therefore natural to include LENZING™ ECOVERO™ and GOTS-certified fabrics in this collection. GOTS stands for organic cotton produced in an environmentally friendly and socially responsible manner, while LENZING™ ECOVERO™ is known as the eco-friendly alternative to regular viscose. Both certifications impose stringent requirements on production processes, focusing on sustainability and environmental aspects. By choosing these sustainable alternatives, both we and Nerida emphasize our commitment to a more sustainable textile industry.
