As we culturally trend away from disposable consumer goods, and towards meaningful, well crafted items with a low environmental impact, kantha blankets happily fit the bill.They are made using old cotton saris and other fabric remnants ( 6 or 7 layers) which are neatly hand sewen together to make wonderful warm cotton quilts .All individual and one of a kind carrying the personality of the maker within each and every one ! 
I just love this jazzy geometric print ! It is a fabulous piece and would look truly stunning in a contemporary enviorment .
