Hand-Embroidered Kantha Stitch

Kantha means "Patched".  It refers to both the style of the stitch & the finished cloth.

It was classically created by stacking old saris onto each other and hand stitching them together using a simple running stitch to make a thin cushioned layer.

Traditionally Bengali women layered together old discarded clothing with the simple kantha (running stitch) style stitching to make a bedspread or bed cushion, repurposing the old into something useful and protective. 

The traditional floral motif of this throw will add a classical element to any decor!
