Carry Your Life in a Kantha Quilt Bag — Hand Stitched Quilts.
CARRY YOUR LIFE IN A KANTHA QUILT
THERE IS ONLY ONE OF EACH QUILT BAG
We've sewn a limited number of our Kantha quilts into bags. These are large cloth bags that can hold a picnic or your haul from the farmer's market. They are based on two popular Maiwa bags - the Market Bag and the Studio Bag. Sizes and location of pockets are given in the listings.
ABOUT KANTHA QUILTS
Fields of colour, a familiar favourite cloth patched into place, a play of fabric. All pieced together and covered with tight running stitches. These vintage quilts have been cherished for years, worn out, re-made and given new life. They are medium-weight and big personality.
Kantha quilts are made for household use in rural parts of Bengal and Bangladesh. Favourite prints, saris, and beloved lengths of cloth are stitched together with plain and coloured threads. Every quilter has her own individual style. These quilts are used as bedcovers, blankets, tablecloths, picnic blankets, car blankets, couch blankets ... there is no limit to the utility of these textiles.
PAIR YOUR BAG WITH A SUNDAR JACKET
ALSO ONE-OF-A-KIND
The Sundar Jacket features a mix of handwoven cloth made from hand-spun threads, yarn-dyed with natural dyes. Beautifully constructed with a lightweight, flowing neck accented by supplemental weft designs and selvedge details. We think they are a wonderful pairing to the Kantha Quilt Bags.
To our U.S. customers – don't forget that the exchange rate works in your favour, it's like an extra discount.
