Do you have pieces of unique textiles you just can't part with? Join us to give those otherwise discarded pieces a new purpose. Kantha textiles are beautiful, intricate textiles often created out of tattered textiles that are layered, sewn together, and embroidered with myriad embroidery stitches to tell the unique stories of their creators.
