craft(µvdU) and is said to be indigenous(Bb‡W‡Rbvm-‡`kxq)
to Bangladesh and West Bengal in India. The art has been practiced(cÖvKwUmW)
in rural Bengal for centuries(‡mbPzwim).The
name ‘Nakshi Kantha’ became popular(ccyjvi-RbwcÖq)
after the poet Jasimuddin’s poem ‘Nakshi Kanthar Math was
published(cvewjmW-cÖKvk Kiv)
in 1929. Traditional(UªvwW‡kvbvj-HwZn¨)
kanthas are made for family use. Old or new cloth and thread(‡_ªW-myZv)
are used to make these quilts. Mymensingh, Jamalpur, Rajshahi, Faridpur, Bogura
and Jashore are most famous(‡dgvm-weL¨vZ)
for this craft. Now it is produced(cÖwWDmW-Drcv`b
Kiv commercially(Kgviwkqvjx-evwbwR¨Kfv‡e).
You can find them in many expensive(G´‡cbwmf-e¨qeûj)
handicraft(n¨vwÛµvdU)
shops in cities. The quilts are now in great(‡MÖU-‡e`g,eo)
demand(wWgvÛ) because(weKR-Kvib)
of the colourful(Kvjvidzj-iwOb)
patterns(c¨vUvb©-bgybv) and designs(wWRvBb-bKkv
Kiv) embroidered on them.
