Fan the Flame of Freedom

Sari Bari artisans are partnering with 25 talented quilters from around the world to bring you more than 40 quilts of all sizes, from baby blankets to king-size quilts. All of the beautiful designs have been created using vintage recycled sari material, and our partner quilters have generously donated time and materials to help fan the flame of freedom in Kolkata, India.
