Tiny hand stitched patchwork triangles and squares make up the detailed pattern, made using recycled cotton. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProbably late 20th Century, the top patchwork is created from unusually small 2cm squares, stitched together in blocks to form the diamond pattern with pinwheels at the centre of each block. The finished top is then layered with other fabrics and stitched together with running stitches in the same style as a kantha quilt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe detail is incredible, showcasing the skill, artistry and patience of the woman who made it. It is in superb condition, clean with hardly any signs of use. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAPPROX SIZE: 215\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ecm x 125cm (85\" x 50\")\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable to throw over the end of a double or king bed (UK) or use as a wall hanging to show it off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRalli quilts are a vibrant, geometric type of blanket made by women in different communities in the Sindh, Gujarat, Rajasthan and Pakistan regions.
