This organic cotton tablecloth's long journey starts from farmers who grow organic cotton. The cotton is then spun into thread and then woven by hand on a handloom. Once the fabric is ready, it is hand block printed with a mud resist by an old traditional technique called Dabu. Dabu translates to "pressing". Wherever the mud resist is pressed, the mud acts like a resist against further dyeing. Through this process of printing and re-printing and natural dyeing - we got such beautiful colors of blue and red. It's a long journey that we thoroughly enjoyed and one we would never forget.

The pillow was as described. The blue was a slightly different shade than it looked n the photo but still worked wonderfully.
The best part was the sweet thank you note and side comment on the pillow. People don’t take the time to write thank you’s any more. It was a welcomed addition.
