Kantha accessories for your kitchen

Indian embroideries have been quite popular throughout the world, and hence in the recent years, there has been a rise in the old age styles of embroidery and fabric stitches. Kantha embroidery is one such example where you can easily find a clear resemblance with the age-old eastern Indian culture.

In earlier days, women of West Bengal and Orissa used to pile up sheer clothes like saris, dhotis, and other kinds of fabrics. When they used to get enough volume, they stitched the clothes together with running stitches along with edges and sometimes in between too to get the desired effects. In the long run, the essence of the Kantha stitches was lost on the Indian mass and somehow the knowledge itself was buried somewhere in the pages of history.
However, in the past few years, the Kantha fabrics have been on a rise, thanks to the love of people for unique Indian embroideries. Kantha stitches are done with multi-color threads in the form of running stitches on thin clothes. Nowadays, Kantha fabrics are not only available in the form of quilts or clothes but also in the form of kitchen accessories.

Yes! You got that right! Kitchen accessories like kitchen towels, table mats, dish clothes and so on are available in the form of embroidered Kantha fabrics. These fabrics are washable easily and hence there is no question of throwing them away the moment they will get dirty. Moreover, you can expect quite a lot of variety of designs, shapes, and even in fabric style.
