Kowdi Kutumba

Kowdi Kutumba Artisan-made products that improve livelihoods for women in urban slums and use upcycled materials

Kowdi is an art, of North Karnataka (Gulbarga, Raichur, Yadgiri etc.), with which many bits and pieces of different colour prints and types of cloth are joined with a running stitch to create a thick double sided bigger piece of cloth. Women have been doing this craft for a long time in order to reuse cloth and not waste it as much as possible. They make quilts of all sizes and it takes them about

a month to make one quilt and hence they have never thought of this as a marketable product. Kowdi Kutumba's mission is to develop this into a means of livelihood for women from low-income communities.
