Fabric:

Perfect in their imperfections each piece is unique. Finely hand-stitched, the quilts that these pockets are made from have up to 6 layers of vintage 100% cotton sari. Sewn together with thousands of tiny running stitches. A product of female resourcefulness and creativity, Kantha is an age-old Indian tradition. Fabrics are between 40-80 years old. Every quilt is carefully selected for its condition, design, and authentic appeal. Freshly washed to ensure softness.

All fabrics are ethically hand-picked by Tanya on her regular trips to India. Quilts are sustainably repurposed by a family-run business that we have enjoyed a working relationship with for over 10 years.

Washing Instructions:
