Kantha is a very popular embroidery technique from West Bengal & finds its earliest mention in the book 'Sri Chaitanya Charitamrita' which was written some five hundred years back. It is basically a form of running stitch done along edges of fabric in various designs. Traditionally, kantha work was a way to reuse old clothes. Women used to stitch together their old & worn out sarees using kantha stitch to create blankets, handkerchiefs & other items. Today, this craft has evolved from being an activity done for personal satisfaction & comfort to a means of livelihood for the families. However, Kantha is still considered a household craft & holds a strong cultural & social significance in the Indian Bengali society. Today, kantha embroidery has become a favorite form of stitch work with designers across the globe. Blue Boho Kantha Throw Quilt, Blanket Coverlet, Bedding, Eclectic Throw, Bohemian Bedding
