Kantha is a style of embroidery used in Odisha and West Bengal (India).
Various layers of old saris are hand-stitched together making from the old a new piece of textile (Sari, quilt, bed cover, scarf, pillow…).Using a running stitch the whole piece of cloth is covered employing either a linear motif or geometrical form representing popular Bengali subjects such as the betel leaf, the bamboo leaf, a stool, a star and a pinch, a fly, a wave and much more.
The Kantha style of stitching gives the final piece of textile a soft wavy effect.
