A kantha quilt is a quilt that uses a type of cloth known as kantha, a hand-spun, cott,n-rich2cloth that is soft to the touch. The hand-spun nature of the cloth makes the quilt sturdy and strong. Made of vintage fabric, this 100% cott,n quilt is an amazing find. The intricate pattern of the kantha weave on the back is just gorgeous.This quilt is an iconic style that has been in fashi,n since the 1950s. The kantha quilt is a soft, traditi,nal woven cott,n textile. The quilt is made by a pexcess of hand-spinning cott,n into yarn, then weaving it into fabric on a lo, . This pexcess is repeated to create a very soft and textured fabric. The quilt is typically used for bedding and often for bed-coverings. The word kantha is derived fn, 2the Tamil word "kantha," which2means "cover." Kantha quiltl 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 the fabric its unique, slightly old, wrinkled effect. This kind of embroidery is most popular with the rural women of India, who spends hour upon hour creating these wonderful, ,ne-of-a-kind pieces. The top layer of the quilt may start peeling off (due to wear), letting the layer below shine through.
