Kantha is a type of fabric that is created by stitching together multiple layers of old fabric using a running stitch. The word "kantha" is pronounced "KAHN-taa" and may come from the Sanskrit word kontha, which means "rags". 

 
 
Kantha is a centuries-old tradition that originated in the eastern regions of South Asia, particularly in Bangladesh, Bengal, Odisha, and Tripura. It is a form of recycling, as it uses old, discarded fabrics that would otherwise be thrown away. Kantha was originally made by women in their homes to keep warm and repurpose old clothing. The items made from kantha fabric were used for a variety of purposes, including:
Bedcovers, Mats, Wrappers, Swaddling babies, Satchels or purses, Floor covers, Prayer mats, and Pillow covers. 
 
 
Kantha stitching is also used on garments such as saris, kurtas, and churidars.
