In Odisha, old saris are stacked on top of each other and sewn by hand to make a thin cushion cover. This is normally used over a bed pillow or in place of a pillow. \"Kantha saris\" are traditionally worn by women in the Bengal region of the Indian subcontinent. Nowadays, this hand-sewn embroidery, popularly known as \"sewn kantha,\" is done on saris, kurtas (or panjabis), churidars, and many other garments, gaining popularity due to its aesthetic value and handcrafted characteristics.\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 saris 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":40724202389700,"sku":"scka15","price":35.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/6295\/9152\/files\/sciarpa-seta-kantha-1_4_213a0d7f-b4b1-4a37-afe7-f44fc57a9369.jpg?v=1785229587","url":"https:\/\/ilmondodiwit.com\/en\/products\/sciarpa-kantha-con-tessuti-vintage-misto-seta-ricamo-a-mano-batik-blu","provider":"Il mondo di Wit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
