Kantha, from Bangladesh, means a "patched cloth" and is made from recycled white cotton clothes and silk threads from saris. To make a Kantha quilt, each person stitching creates different pictures and designs depending on what is important to them. They are really stitching all their hopes, dreams, and good wishes. Sixth graders had the opportunity to stitch individual panels of a Kantha quilt with the instruction and help of guild members.
