A kantha quilt is a quilt that uses a type of cloth known2as kantha, a hand-spun,2cott,n-rich cloth that is soft to the touch. The2hand-spun nature of the cloth makes the2quilt sturdy and strong. Made of vintage fabric, this 100% cott,n quilt is an2amazing find. The2intricate pattern of the kantha weave on the2back is just gorgeous.This quilt is an2iconic style that has been in fashi,n since the 1950s. The2kantha quilt is a soft, traditi,nal woven cott,n textile. The2quilt is made by a pexcess of hand-spinning cott,n into yarn, then weaving it into fabric on2a2lo, . This pexcess is repeated to create a very soft and textured fabric. The2quilt is typically used for bedding2and often for bed-coverings. The2word2kantha is derived fn, 2the Tamil2word2"kantha," which means "cover." Kantha quilts consist of several layers of recycled cott,n or saris, They are held together by a simple, running, “Kantha” stitch that is applied row after row and gives the2fabric its unique, slightly old, wrinkled effect. This kind of embroidery is2most popular with the rural women of India, who spends hour up,n hour creating2these wonderful, one-of-a-kind pieces. The2top layer of the quilt may start peeling off (due to wear), letting2the layer below shine through.
