Kantha – Gorgeous Blankets from Bangladesh ♥ Канта – красиви одеала от Бангладеш

PreviousNext

These cute creations are called “kantha”, they come from Bangladesh and are traditional two-sided blankets made from repurposed vintage cloth. The interesting part is that they are all handmade by women who stitch them together and use this not only as a form of self-expression but it is also a social activity which has a biblical value for them.

Visit the website of “Hand & Cloth” to see more beautiful pictures of  “kantha” blankets and plenty of information about the whole thing.

Тези симпатични одеала сe наричат  “kantha” и идват от Бангладеш. Представляват традиционни за региона одеала с две страни направени от използван вече текстил. Интересната част тук е, че са направени от жени, които по този начин не само изразяват себе си, но и общуват.


Разгледайте уебсайта на “Hand & Cloth” , за още красиви снимки на “kantha” одеалата и допълнителна информация за този красив творчески процес.

    There's nothing quite like a hand made quilt, so luxurious and you can feel the love when you wrap up with one.
