Anni Albers: Visible Mending Transfers

Anni Albers (1899–1994) reshaped textile design, merging Bauhaus principles with the expressive possibilities of thread. Her work spanned intricate small weavings, bold graphic compositions, and large-scale architectural textiles, all guided by a deep understanding of structure and material. She believed weaving was more than craft—it was a language of form, repetition, and innovation. By translating her designs into mending transfers, Approved Textiles embraces her vision of textiles as both functional and artistic, turning repair into a creative act of rhythm and reinvention. --- These mending patterns are a love letter to the artists who move us—not replicas, but stitches inspired by their spirit. We believe their genius extends far beyond the canvas, into the way we see, create, and repair the world around us. While our designs are original interpretations, they wouldn’t exist without the brilliance of Anni Albers and her enduring influence.
