The word Marmalade comes from the Portuguese word "marmelo", meaning quince fruit. So, contrary to popular belief marmalade was not originally made from citrus fruit, but from the lovely and slightly lumpy quince fruit. Quince Marmalade was especially popular in the Tudor period of England and was said to be an aphrodisiac. Alright!
Quince to Marmalade. Taking textiles and giving them a new life. Creating something new from something old. Dig it.
