Ustad Handblock Printed Quilt

Design inspiration

Ustad means ‘master’, ‘maestro’ or ‘master craftsman’ in several Asian languages. 

Our quilts are handcrafted using the traditional hand block printing technique. It takes many hours of devoted effort to design, mix the colours, print and quilt. Thus making each and every quilt unique and a work of art for your home.

This quilt is dedicated to all the skilful artisans around the world, who are the true masters of their craft and make dreams into reality. 

Product Description

This is a reversible, handblock printed quilt. It’s printed on both sides so can be used either way.

It contains a total of three layers: two layers of hand-printed, soft cotton fabric, and a middle layer of hand fluffed, natural cotton. Unlike traditional Kantha quilts, we’ve chosen to use fluffy, open cotton, which gives you the much-desired cosiness and warmth.

Our quilts are hand block printed by master artisans, then entirely hand quilted by dedicated and caring women. Months of hard work goes into making a high-quality quilt that adds character to your bedroom.

We create our products in small batches and do not mass produce them, so you become the proud owner of a quilt that’s been crafted with love and care.
