Kantha is a specific style of embroidery originating from India, mainly Bangladesh & West Bengal. It consists of vintage cotton or silk saris which are layered on top of each other & stitched together with a simple running stitch throughout the fabric & along the edges. Typically, a minimum of three cotton or silk sari layers make up each piece of kantha fabric. This forms a thin, light quilt that is soft, comfortable & cool. Kantha blankets' primary original purpose was to serve as blankets to sleep in. As you can see, there are endless functional & beautiful uses for kantha! in addition to being extremely versatile & aesthetically pleasing, kantha is also environmentally-friendly choice as it is created by repurposing vintage cotton or silk saris. Each kantha item has its own story to tell, & no two items are alike! Sometimes there may be a little wear in the top layer exposing the gorgeous, eye-catching layer beneath, or sometimes they may sport a little patching adding to the charismatic appeal. Here at Turquoise Tree Designs you can purchase the traditional handmade vintage quilts & also many accessories made from kantha quilts. I use many of the items in my campervan, kitchen, & home. The fabric is scrumptiously soft, absorbent & quick to dry! Please have a browse around - I'm sure you will find a unique & exquisite gift for a friend, loved one, or yourself!
