About Kantha Embroidery

Kantha comprises of the simplest stitch in the language of embroidery - the running stitch. Originally it was used to join layers of old saris, to make quilts and was used as a means of self-expression by both urban and rural women in Bengal. The remarkable Kantha needlework is purely spontaneous folk expression of personal desire and emotion of the rural woman belonging to different region, ethnic, and religious groups. As every human being is different from other – so is the Kantha stitch craft... they are never alike.
