What is Kantha embroidery?
Kantha is a running-stitch embroidery tradition from Bengal. Women repurpose old cotton sarees by layering and stitching them together with fine running stitches. The stitching creates a rippled surface and tells visual stories.
How long does Kantha embroidery take?
Old cotton sarees are stacked (3-7 layers) and stitched together using a simple running stitch with cotton thread. The stitching compresses the layers and creates a quilted texture. Narrative scenes are filled with colored thread.
How can I tell if the embroidery is hand-done?
Hand embroidery has a slightly irregular stitch pattern on the reverse side. Machine embroidery shows perfectly uniform stitches. The texture and depth of hand stitching is visibly different.
Will the threads pull or snag during use?
Handle embroidered areas gently. Avoid rubbing against rough surfaces. If a thread catches, don't pull. push it back gently with a needle. Proper care keeps the embroidery intact for years.
How do I wash embroidered products?
Turn inside out and hand wash in cold water. Do not wring or scrub the embroidered area. Press gently with a towel to remove water. Iron on the reverse side at low heat.
