Cotton Quilt Printed Niharika-Quilted entirely by hand and fully reversible.




























Treat yourself to the sumptuous softness of Fabindia's fine cotton voile quilts. 100% pure cotton, including the fill, quilted entirely by hand these fully reversible  quilts are the perfect year-round weight.  Skilled artisans carve the required design into hard wood to make the blocks, which are the essential tools for printing. These blocks are then sequentially dipped into dye bath and stamped onto the fabric with skilled precision. A separate block is used for each colour.
Abstract floral medallions swirling amongst wandering vines covers one side while the opposite reverses to floating individual flowers, with both sides framed by coordinating borders.










































Fabindia hand blockprint cotton quilts are of premium quality. The irresistibly soft cotton voile cover and pure cotton batting makes them both light and warm. The secret to our extra special softness and warmth is the carefully carded cotton batting and finely woven cotton cover. Hand embroidered running stitches cover the quilt and hold the cotton batting in place.
