Injiri has launched a line of sustainable quilts. This women’s wear brand has used fabric scraps to create decorative quilts with the aim of reducing textile waste. Injiri has repurposed the textile waste through quilting, as well as piecing and patching, which are the brand’s primary waste-reduction techniques.
In these hand-made quilts the quilter’s skill is always present. So the quilts connect the textile to the artisans. Injiri’s latest collection Taan Baan also features repurposed fabric scraps for its summer wardrobe.

Injiri, launched in 2009, offers women’s wear and home textiles. The brand believes in the beauty of hand-weaving processes. As a brand it is more about story-telling. The brand’s focus is on textile development and sustainable use of materials. Curating an aesthetic around absolute simplicity and working within the limitations of textile techniques, Injiri celebrates the living tradition of crafts in India.
The process centers on working closely with master weavers and their textile vocabulary across various parts of India. The brand celebrates fabric from its inception in the yarn to the end of the process in the tangible product.
