[edit] Textile use: things to do

There's lots of room to expand the textile uses of madder: traditonal "red coat" uniforms, "hunting pink" coats. Madder was also an important economic crop in Europe prior to the invention of synthetic dyes. Will add as time permits. - PKM 03:24, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
