- Introduce children to the world of kantha (called 'katha' in some regions) through The Katha Chest, a beautifully illustrated picture book that brings alive the tradition of stitching stories into cotton quilts. The story follows young Asiya as she explores her family’s “katha chest” filled with quilts made from her grandmother’s old saris. Each quilt holds its own story.
- We love giving beautiful books a second life, especially those that celebrate the craftsmanship and heart behind our kantha blankets.
- A note from Lauranne: "We fell in love with this book after stumbling upon it at our local library and couldn't wait to share it with the dignify community! We thought this would make a perfect Christmas add-on or stocking stuffer to explain our blankets!"
- Pair it as a stocking stuffer with our Mini kantha blankets to share the story of kantha, dignify and hope with a little one in your life.
