In Odisha, old sarees are stacked on top of each other and sewn by hand to make a thin cushion cover. This is normally used on top of a bed pillow or in place of a pillow. \"Kantha sarees\" are traditionally worn by women in the Bengal region of the Indian subcontinent. Today, this stitching embroidery, popularly known as \"kantha stitching,\" is done on sarees, kurtas (or panjabis), churidars, and many other garments, gaining popularity due to its aesthetic appeal and handcrafted qualities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eKantha stitching is also used to make simple quilts, commonly known as nakshi kantha. Women in Bengal typically use old sarees and fabrics, layering them with kantha stitching to make a lightweight blanket, throw, or bedspread, especially for children. Kantha is very popular among tourists visiting the Bengal region of the Indian subcontinent.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Il mondo di Wit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40725051769028,"sku":"scka35","price":35.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/6295\/9152\/files\/sciarpa-seta-kantha_9111f952-bf18-4bfe-b079-91e91286a811.jpg?v=1785228759","url":"https:\/\/ilmondodiwit.com\/en\/products\/sciarpa-kantha-con-tessuti-vintage-misto-seta-ricamo-a-mano-azzurro-batik","provider":"Il mondo di Wit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
