Description
A hand-made patchwork quilt in denim colours with the design of a beach hut.
Fair Trade
These traditional patchworks have been hand quilted by women living in the countryside of India. The bedspread is literally made from home-spun fabrics, which are woven by family owned looms within their own dwellings. The yarn used is 100% natural cotton, sourced locally. Thousands of tiny intricate patches of fabric are hand-guided, machine stitched and painstakingly hand quilted. With some of these quilts having over 10,000 patches they can take more than a month to make and from the income generated the women are able to send their children to school and take care of their families.
Dimensions
Being hand-made, these patchwork quilts vary slightly in their dimensions, which adds to their charm.
Here is a rough guide:
- Singles: 150-180cm by 220-235cm
- Doubles: 215-235cm by 240-260cm
- Kings: 250-260cm by 270-280cm
