Hand-stitched stab work quilt
Many of our farm guests return every year, and they often pick out a new hand stitched Indian quilt each time they visit. I import these lovely quilts from a woman’s collective in India. Each is made with recycled cotton saris. Each side is different, and the entire quilt is usually pieced of many different fabrics. There are often lovely patches applied as well. They machine wash beautifully.
In our home, we use these for throws on the sofa, picnic blankets, and they are the perfect size for a twin bedspread. You can stitch two together and make a great size coverlet for a double or for a queen bed. We use them as curtains – they attach beautifully to the clip curtain rings you can get at any home store. When my quilts get worn out, I cut them up and make them into pillows, potholders, and stuffed animals. They are truly a beautiful example of making do, and I’m really pleased to be able to support this traditional craft.
If you want to leave me a note for the predominant colors you’re looking for, I will try to accommodate you. But the quilts are so visually complicated, I can’t list them each individually on the site without charging a lot more – and I love being able to keep these very affordable.
Dimensions vary slightly, but basically, they are a good size to cover a twin bed.
