    * 29 Heidi F. Jie HREADS STORIES IN THE THREADS: INTERVENTION AND T REINTERPRETATION IN KANTHA-MAKING The art of mending is an ancient craft. From clothing to pottery, what was worn and damaged was repaired to be used again. The repurposing of textiles has long been appreciated as an art form. Quilting, or the sewing together of layers of fabric by stitching through those layers to produce a thicker fabric, has been practiced in many regions around the world, from Europe and Asia to the Americas and Africa, and has taken on many forms and techniques. Quilting refers to the activity as well as the stitching technique used to work through the layers, and there are similarities and variances in both of these across traditions and cultures. For the purposes of this essay, the term ‘craft’ will refer to the mastery, skill and effort involved in making a thing by hand, in this case, a textile work such as a kantha. Because these works are an expression of that skill, requiring the use of imagination and creativity, they are a form of art.1 TORIES IN THE S The word ‘kantha’ speaks not only of a textile used for bedding and the name of the stitch; it has come to refer to any object using the stitch as part of its design. It can be found on a variety objects from saris to home furnishings today. Very simple and versatile, it lends itself easily to many design possibilities and materials. The only criterion for the perfect kantha stitch is that it is even in size and spacing, an exacting task.

Introduction Different styles of Indian embroidery have been handed down from generation to generation such as Zardozi, Chikankari, Sujni, Kantha, Kasuti, Toda, mirror work. The passion for embroidery in India has led to great experimentation in the field, with several styles, creating dazzling effects such as the 'stained glass' look, the long cross stitch, rice stitch, textured panels and much more. One can see embroidery on wall hangings, saris, textiles and garments, incorporating unique motifs and patterns. Zardozi is one of the oldest and most beautiful embroidery styles of India. It is used extensively in clothing and home decoration. Painstakingly and delicately done by hand, creations in Zardozi work are timeless, unbounded by the shackles of trends. 1.1 History of the craft Zardozi — the magnificent metallic embellishment of India — dates back to ancient times. It finds mention in Vedic literature, the Ramayana and the Mahabharata, and all accounts of the Sultanate period. The country, from very early times, was known for the use of gold embroidery on a variety of objects including furnishings, trappings, parasols, and equestrian ornaments.

The Refining of a Domestic Art: Surayia Rahman Niaz Zaman and Cathy Stevulak The kantha or, as it is increasingly referred to now, the nakshi kantha, is an important women’s domestic art of Bengal. It is made all over Bangladesh except in the south-eastern Chittagong Hill Tracts region. Layers of old garments such as saris, lungis and dhotis are put together and reconstituted into objects of functional, ritual, or ceremonial use. Borders and motifs are embroidered in variations of the running stitch with coloured thread, traditionally drawn from the borders of old saris. The empty spaces are stitched with white yarn to create an effect of ripples. In most Bengali families, small kanthas made of soft, old cloth, are used to wrap babies. [Figure 1] Husbands or sons who leave home to work on land or water almost always carry with them a kantha made by their mothers or wives.
