Beautiful fabric..............I immediately though of a whole cloth baby blanket!!! I'm from Texas, so a little Kantha blanket would be light weight enough during warm summer days and nights!! I would consider adding a warmer backing for cooler months as well.
My girls LOVE blankets, so I would love to keep the tradition of the fabric and teach them the basics of quilting. They are learning to sew, so it would be a great introduction.
Oh my gosh, I'm so excited because I saw that Windham fabric at my local quilt shop and knew I had to incorporate it into my Candice Ayala Upcycling Challenge 2019 project that I am making. So far I have used it in the back of the jacket and the top 2/3's of the set-in sleeves. I have even been trying to do the same type of stitching on the lower portion of the sleeves to continue the pattern of the running stitch quilting. This fabric is so special.
I make junk journals and love to cover them with fabric.............the natural fabrics and stitching on this fabric would enhance any journal. I would also use scraps within the journal on some of the tags, as tuck spots or just as embellishments to add texture and color.
Reminds me of Shibori, it's amazing how different cultures have similar techniques. Makes me want to learn more history and pull out those shibori UFOs
Wow so gorgeous! I love the backs of them all. The reversible skirt is a great idea, i could probably make a reversible jumper, or it would make a great weekender style bag!
Kantha is SO beautiful, I LOVE your makes!! I would make outfits for my daughters. A romper for the baby, a dress for my toddler, and a pleated skirt for my oldest.
Gorgouse fabric! I love the history, and your personal family story connection. Personally bibwould love to make an interchangeable vest or a baby quilt. And a big gorgouse bag for my mom! She would love this. So stunning. I love the colourful patched fronts with the light coloured back, tan or blue...
Coordinated or matching bridal party robes. The fabric is lightweight enough to use as a cover up while bridesmaids and the bride prepare for the wedding.
I'd love to make my granddaughter a skirt like the one you made, plus I'd love to make a fall jacket for her also. I'm glad to learn about this fabric as it's one I've never seen before. Thanks for sharing!
The more I look at this fabric the more ideas I have............cosmetic bags or an overnight tote would be pretty. The bags or tote could be reversible and there would be no need for a lining since the back of this fabric is as beautiful as the front.
I have a vintage pattern that I’ve been dying to use, a tailored shorts romper, with a full circle over skirt that is split in front, to show shorts. That would look great with the fabric backside peeking out from the over skirt, and accents of the backside on the romper!
I've never heard of this fabric before but it seems like a really interesting material to work with. I would use if for a backpack, quilt or statement pillow cases.
These was such an informative video! And the fabrics are fabulous. I can see a series of pillows to start but am already thinking of using some pieces in visible mending of jeans and maybe tee shirts or hoodies. It is so striking! Thank you.
I love to make coiled baskets using clothesline rope and fabric strips!! I think scraps of Kantha would work well for such a craft......or I could make the basket without fabric and line the interior with Kantha!!

Beautiful fabric..............I immediately though of a whole cloth baby blanket!!! I'm from Texas, so a little Kantha blanket would be light weight enough during warm summer days and nights!! I would consider adding a warmer backing for cooler months as well.
This is the coolest! I want to get a big piece and just use it as my bedspread!!!
I can also see a beautiful hi low peplum dress, that would showcase both sides of that gorgeousness!!!
Kantha cloth from Windham is EXCEPTIONAL! I've made jackets and purses that get compliments every single time!
A cute vest or jacket!!!
I really like the red Kantha. I would do pillow covers, a purse and some placemats.
My girls LOVE blankets, so I would love to keep the tradition of the fabric and teach them the basics of quilting. They are learning to sew, so it would be a great introduction.
I’d use some scraps to make pretty Christmas ornaments
Trisha Brown It would be so pretty decoupaged on glass bulbs!
I've also been thinking of incorporating the Kantha fabric into a pair of jeans that go along with my jacket.

YAAAYY ... I'm looking forward to your make :)
This is great! We're so happy that you saw Windham fabric in the wild!
I make junk journals and love to cover them with fabric.............the natural fabrics and stitching on this fabric would enhance any journal. I would also use scraps within the journal on some of the tags, as tuck spots or just as embellishments to add texture and color.
Oh, a jacket out of either the black, or red based fabric would be amazing!

I would love more ideas about this fabric and on how to make a Kantha quilt. Thank you for the inspiration! ❤️🧵
This is completely gorgeous! I'd make a boxy dolman tunic to show off the prints!
Backpack, duffle bag or chair pads for my patio. I love this fabric!
Wow so gorgeous! I love the backs of them all. The reversible skirt is a great idea, i could probably make a reversible jumper, or it would make a great weekender style bag!
I love this, I would make a purse!
So cool! I would make a jacket!
I have wanted to sew something with Kantha!
I love the skirt you created! I would probably make a large farmer's market tote!
Awww, thank you!! I can't wait to see your tote! :)
Kantha is SO beautiful, I LOVE your makes!! I would make outfits for my daughters. A romper for the baby, a dress for my toddler, and a pleated skirt for my oldest.

Coordinated or matching bridal party robes. The fabric is lightweight enough to use as a cover up while bridesmaids and the bride prepare for the wedding.
Gorgeous! I'd make a dress for me.

Beautiful! I would make a collage and use it for an appliqué.
I'm thinking throw pillows for a bedroom or living room would be perfect using one or all of these prints!
The more I look at this fabric the more ideas I have............cosmetic bags or an overnight tote would be pretty. The bags or tote could be reversible and there would be no need for a lining since the back of this fabric is as beautiful as the front.
I have a vintage pattern that I’ve been dying to use, a tailored shorts romper, with a full circle over skirt that is split in front, to show shorts. That would look great with the fabric backside peeking out from the over skirt, and accents of the backside on the romper!
I too would probably make a bag or jacket out of the Kantha.
I've never heard of this fabric before but it seems like a really interesting material to work with.
I would use if for a backpack, quilt or statement pillow cases.
I would probably make a sewing machine cover also
These was such an informative video! And the fabrics are fabulous. I can see a series of pillows to start but am already thinking of using some pieces in visible mending of jeans and maybe tee shirts or hoodies. It is so striking! Thank you.
Thick headbands that show off the fabric.
Beautiful art work.👌❤
