Gajanad Artistry 1 Piece Handmade Indian Vintage Kantha Quilts Reversible Bohemian Home Decor Blanket “ Assorted Color Twin Size 85X55 Inches

The quality of the stitching at the edges was great..the colour's were amazing..u don't get to choose for yourself... The size was large..and I was worried needlessly they'd be too small The people I gave these to were very happy with them and I kept one for myself

Stunning kantha. So bright and colorful. I highly recommend this seller.

After reading the other reviews, i was hesitant about ordering these quilts. The pictures looked nice but a lot of reviewers commented about the smell. I decided to give them a shot since Amazon provided Free Returns for this item. Im sure glad I did. Since they were on sale, I got them for less than a cheap quilt. Kantha: I assumed Kantha was a type of stitch but I went ahead and googled it, just to be sure. This is where I learned that Kantha quilts are made from recycled saris. It seems some reviewers were buying based on the pics and not description because one reviewer said the quilts looked used. Of course they will look somewhat used if they are being recycled or as some call it "upcycled". But let me assure you that, although the colors were a bit muted, my quilts did not look like hand-me downs. The fabric did not have any holes or fuzzies all over them like used clothes do. Im sure the seller chooses only the best used saris they can find. So, just be sure you know what you are buying before writing your review. Smell: Let's address this one, as well, since it was one of the major concerns of most reviewers. To be honest, the way other reviewers were describing the smell, I assumed these quilts were going to smell like a mixture of the sari owner's scent. Again, let me assure you that they DO NOT smell like I assumed. I was pleasantly surprised that the only scent I could get off of them was more of a chemical one. It was definitely not strong or extremely unpleasant like others describe. Could the seller have made adjustments from the time the others wrote their reviews to the time I got my quilts? Possibly! Maybe they listened the the complaints and adjusted the smell. Who knows? All i know is that, in the past, I have purchased foam mattresses with a stronger chemical smell than this. A smell that needed to be aired out. These quilts do have a scent but its not a very strong one. Not enough to THINK it wouldn't wear off in the wash. Of course, I wash EVERY fabric that comes into my house before I use it, anyways. So, the scent COULD possibly bother you if you're the type of person that wants to use the items right out of the package. Otherwise, please dont let the other reviews, about scent, deter you from buying these quilts. I am definitely keeping mine. They are in my laundry room waiting to be washed. Stitch: Let's also talk about the stitch. Can you see some of the hand-sewn stitching pop up? Yes! You can see what Im referring to, in my pics. Does it lead me to believe that they will unravel easily? No! The stitching feels tight and strong. Of course, there has to be an end to the stitch. Could they do a better job of hiding the end? Probably, but it doesn't look bad the way it currently is. In my opinion, it adds to the charm that these are HAND-stitched. For this being a hand-stitched quilt i would say they did a pretty darn good job. I did see some of the sari ends showing through (i.e. unraveling ends of the sari). But, like i said, the stitching is tight and strong so im not worried about these actually becoming unraveled. They just look like the ends of the fabric that got overlooked when getting cut. I havent washed these so i haven't gotten a chance to put them up against a twin mattress. But i got these specifically for my kiddos to use during summer. They needed something lightweight to keep them warm but not hot. I am hoping these work for that. By the touch of the fabric, i do believe they will work. They also look to be the right size for a twin bed. Once we start using them i will know for sure. Overall, i am more than satisfied with my purchase; especially because i got these on sale and they are of good quality. I would definitely buy these again and will consider getting more as gifts. I think they would look cute as throw blankets on a sofa. Would recommend you get your own to find out.

Good

I'm obsessed. Today I received my 6th one. My closet looks so colorful and comforting. I keep thinking I will just order them until I get one I don't like but that may never happen. I love them all but one special one has a lovely little village scene on it. Wow. Soon I will have to begin gifting them as I run out of closet space. They wash and dry just fine and they're soft and beautiful. Love, love them
