Natural dyes mostly require a mordant to be fixed onto the textile fibre (Jothi, 2008). Common mordants like al- um, potassium dichromate, stannous chloride and ferrous sulphate were used in this study.

The shades of colour developed on the cotton fabrics from the crude dye mate- rials are shown in Figures 1 to 4 were yellow and brown indicate the major involvement of flavonoid and tannin colour moieties during the dyeing process.
