How you say it: KAHN-taa
Where they’re from:
Kantha Quilts, or simply kanthas, originate in Bangladesh and the eastern states of India, where women stitch together layer upon layer of old saris and tossed-aside cloth scraps to create thin throws used as blankets and cushions.
Fun fact:
Kanthas sport different patterns on each side, and who doesn’t love a good two-for-one deal?
