What is Kantha?

Kantha is a specific style of embroidery originating from India, mainly Bangladesh and West Bengal. It consists of vintage cotton or silk saris which are layered on top of each other and stitched together with a simple running stitch throughout the fabric and 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 and cool. Kantha blankets’ primary original purpose was to serve as blankets to sleep in. As you can see, there are endless functional and beautiful uses for kantha!
