Kantha work is all had sewn. Mostly on SAREES in India. Such intricate designs!!! A saree is 5 yards in length. So you can imagine how much of stitching. Generally done on silk here. Kantha work sarees are very popular. It was nice reading about and the heart has come out well.<br /><br />Have a beautiful weekendAishwaryahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12730339914198671779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3892698216196992963.post-22217675439144112242013-11-23T08:41:02.877+00:002013-11-23T08:41:02.877+00:00I wonder if this is what I'm looking for?

Please, please, can you tell us a bit more ?<br />e.g. you mention perlé coton ---> which number ?<br />what kind of needle are you using ?<br />Is it a simple "long stitch quilting", sort of ?<br />I'm so curious and would very much like to have a trial.
